Abstract

A model has been plotted according to average velocities in accordance with the data of seismic studies during the period from the 1960th up to the 2000th. The layered-blocky model of the earth’s crust of the Ukrainian Shield (USh) has been plotted. The model obtained does not contradict with models known before and is used as a crust correction while the problem of seismic tomography for the mantle of the Ukrainian Shield is being solved. The dependence of the results of solution of this problem on the degree of brightness of the earth’s crust and the necessity to use, if possible, velocity models of the earth’s crust while plotting seeismotomographic models of the mantle has been confirmed.
