Velocities of refracted longitudinal Pn waves in the Dinarides area

(in Croatian)

Abstract

The refracted longitudinal wave velocities in the Dinarides area have been determined on the basis of the modified time-term method for the dipping Moho discontinuity. The homogeneity of the Earth crust is assumed. The results (ranging between 7.85 and 8.45 km s^-1) divide the research area into three parts and confirm the complexity of the Dinarides region. The arithmetic mean of the Pn wave velocities (calculated for the entire Dinarides area) is 8.10 km s^-1. This value is comparable to the average velocity of 8.14 km s^-1 obtained for the Dinarides region by deep seismic sounding.
