Electronic Supplement to
Complex Deep Structure of the African Low-Velocity Zone

by Emanuel D. Kästle, Michael Weber, and Frank Krüger

This electronic supplement contains 14 figures and 4 tables. Each figure shows the preprocessed original waveforms aligned with the synthetics for the corresponding event. The alignment and the travel-time delay shown in each panel are obtained after following the procedure described in the Travel-Time Picks section in the main article. The tables give a list of stations and the values for the applied corrections, that is, mantle correction, station correction, and event correction.

Table S3 [Plain Text Comma-Separated Values; 970 Bytes]. Station corrections.

Table S4 [Plain Text Comma-Separated Values; 164 Bytes]. Event corrections.


Figures

Figure S1. Event SS2011-03-06 and phase S (SV). Original waveforms (black) and synthetics (red) aligned at the correlation maximum. Station names and resulting travel-time delays (without corrections) are given in each panel.

Figure S2. Event SS2011-03-06 and phase ScS (SV). Original waveforms (black) and synthetics (red) aligned at the correlation maximum. Station names and resulting travel-time delays (without corrections) are given in each panel. For correlation coefficients lower than 0.8, the travel-time delay is given in gray; these data have not been used in the study.

Figure S3. Event SS2011-09-03 and phase S (SV). Original waveforms (black) and synthetics (red) aligned at the correlation maximum.
