On the causes and modes of exhumation and lateral growth of the Alps
[1] A compilation of the apatite and zircon fission track ages of the Alpine chain points to markedly different patterns of cooling and exhumation of the Eastern Alps compared to the central andWestern Alps. The site of exhumation and shortening in the Western Alps migrated outward, whereas it was more stationary in the Eastern Alps, where it created a narrower metamorphic belt. A correlation o...
متن کاملRegional Ambient Noise Tomography in the Eastern Alps of Europe
We present results from ambient noise tomography applied to temporary seismological stations in the easternmost part of the Alps and their transition to the adjacent tectonic provinces (Vienna Basin, Bohemian Massif, Southern Alps, Dinarides). By turning each station into a virtual source, we recover surface waves in the frequency range between 0.1 and 0.6 Hz, which are sensitive to depths of a...
متن کاملA Sinkhole Field Experiment in the Eastern Alps
O ver the last 25 years, a series of studies has investigated the diurnal formation and destruction cycle of temperature inversions in valleys and basins (for a review see, e.g., Whiteman 1990). In most of the valleys and basins that have been studied to date, advective influences produced by the well-known, diurnally reversing upand down-valley wind systems have greatly complicated the analyse...
متن کاملInsights on the upper mantle beneath the Eastern Alps
Analyses of Ps and Sp receiver functions from datasets collected by permanent and temporary seismic stations, image a seismic discontinuity, due to a negative velocity contrast across the entire Eastern Alps. The receiver functions show the presence of the discontinuity within the upper mantle with a resolution of tens of kilometers laterally. It is deeper (100-130 km) below the central portion...
