TELESEISMIC<br />
BODY WAVES<br />
Initial portion of<br />
seismogram includes<br />
direct P wave <strong>and</strong> surface<br />
reflections pP <strong>and</strong> sP<br />
Hence result depends<br />
crucially on earthquake<br />
depth <strong>and</strong> thus delay<br />
times<br />
Powerful for depth<br />
determination<br />
