Abstract/NotesA passive seismological experiment across the northern boundary
of the

Tornquist Fan was

carried out from December 1994 until April 1995 along a 100 km long profile


in Denmark and Sweden.

Observed PS converted seismic waves indicate an abrupt increase in Moho
depth

of 4–5 km within 5 km

horizontal distance at about 50 km to the northeast of the Øresund.


This is a much sharper jump than that

inferred from the wide-angle data of EUGENO-S line 1. Preliminary analysis
of

seismic shear wave

anisotropy indicates asthenospheric mantle flow parallel to the Sorgenfrei-Tornquist


Zone. These parallel

directions are already observed between the Elbe Line and the Sorgenfrei-Tornquist


Zone while further

south in central Europe the flow directions follow the trend of the Alpine
belt.
