Des millions d'Européens vivent dans les régions alpines et sont affectés par la chaîne de montagne, que ça soit par sa topographie, sa géologie ou les risques naturels qu'elle engendre (séismes, mouvements de terrain). Les géologues ont étudié les Alpes depuis plus de 100 ans, ce qui en fait un laboratoire naturel unique pour produire de la...

The Moho preserves imprints of the regional geodynamic evolution of the lithosphere. As such, its detailed topography in divergence or convergence zones has a strong bearing on any geodynamic model. This is still more critical where 3D effects are expected, as in the case of the Alpine chain which exhibits in its western part a short radius of...

A temporary network of 65 short-period seismological stations was installed in the southwestern Alps during the second half of 1996. It complemented the permanent monitoring networks, obtaining an average interstation distance of ∼10 km. Travel time data from 446 local earthquakes and 104 quarry blasts were inverted simultaneously for...

We investigate how focal solutions and hypocenter locations may depend on the ray tracing algorithm and the strategy of velocity inversion. Using arrival times from a temporary seismological network in the south-western Alps, a local earthquake tomography has been performed by Paul et al.
