Teleseismic P-wave Delay Time in Iceland

An evaluation is made of relative teleseismic P -wave delays between stations in Iceland and EKA (Scotland), KIR (Sweden) and KTG (Greenland). A detailed analysis of possible sources of error including the use of array data to detect the onset of events, shows there is a delay of at least 1 s associ...
