Abstract
We discuss the propagation of muon and tauon neutrinos through the inner Ea rth. In particular, we investigate the effects of crossing the Earth on the spectra of high-energy tauon neutrinos and on generic neutrino flux limits . Finally, we comment on the possibility of carrying out a tomography of th e Earth using total event rates.
