This study is an analysis of the distribution of k = VP/VS and the Poisson coefficient (σ) using deep seismic sounding data from the SVEKA profile. One-dimensional models were constructed for the two longest branches of travel time for SV and P waves, on the basis of their correlation. These models are characterized by numerous layers of increased and decreased velocities. Both models show good agreement with experimental data. The k and σ values which resulted from the above models made it possible to determine the distribution of these parameters in the crystalline complex of the Earth's crust. A seismic-petrological model for the crust was proposed on the basis of the presented data. A low value of k corresponds to a layer of velocity 7.35 km s-1 and allows it to be interpreted as an ultrabasic layer in the lower part of the crust. This layer is characteristic for the Ladoga-Bothnian Bay Suture Zone.
