a Simplified sketch of the tectonic situation in our study area, derived from Fig. 3a, with only the RFZ and the Eocene Klimsenhorn Formation indicated. b Three superimposed cross-sections through the study area. Profile 1 is located to the north of RZF1, profile 2 is located between RFZ1 and RFZ2, and profile 3 is located to the south of RZF2. The three profiles allow a first-order approximation of the total displacement across the fault zones with the help of the large-scale syncline exposed in the study area (Fig. 2d) by correlating constructed fold hinges of the Eocene Klimsenhorn Fm on either side of the fault zones
