Dynamite shots of the crustal-scale refraction seismic project ALP 2002 were recorded by an array of 40 seismological three-component stations on the TRANSALP profile. These observations provide a direct link between the two deep seismic projects. We report preliminary results obtained from these data. In a first approach we verified the TRANSALP refraction seismic velocity model computing traveltimes for several shots and comparing them to the new observations. The results generally confirm this model. Significant first-break traveltime differences in and near the Tauern Window are explained by anisotropy. Large-scale features of the model, particularly the Moho structure, seem to be continuous towards the east. Traveltime residuals of wide-angle reflections indicate a slight eastward dip component of the Adriatic Moho.
