Abstract
We plan to install and maintain a large seismic antenna in the northern part of Finland. The installation will take place in spring 2007 and maintained for 2 years. For the duration of the experiment, the data will mainly be analysed for quality control. The data will subsequently (2009-2011) be analysed for various objectives. The French part of the data analysis will be focussed on imaging the lithospheric structure (0-300 km) beneath the area to improve our understanding of the creation and evolution of the continents over the last 3.5 billion years.
Inserted in IPY project n°185 POLENET : Polar Earth Observing Network.
