Alpine Lithosphere and Upper Mantle
PASsive Seismic Monitoring
 
 
 
ALPASS is a passive seismic monitoring project aiming to reveal lower lithosphere and upper mantle beneath the wider Eastern Alpine region, and to contribute to a better understanding of the geodynamic processes at work.
DETAILS
By cooperation of Austria, Croatia, Finland, Hungary, Poland, and USA 89 temporary seismic recording stations were deployed from May 2005 until May 2006.

The ALPASS network fills the gap between existing tomographic images of the Western and parts of the Eastern Alps (TRANSALP), and the ongoing passive seismic monitoring projects in the north (BOHEMA) and the east (CBP).
