Abstract
The paper is a sketch of the fifty years-long experience in using wide-angle (postcritical) reflections in DSS. Wide-angle reflections from the Moho are commonly recorded at offsets from 60 to 200 km. Their waveform is variable but correlation against first arrivals is quite stable. Wide-angle reflections are well applicable in seismic exploration.
