Cartoon summarizing the sedimentary facies and fault distribution, based on an interpretation of profile AB in Fig. 3. The Schrattenkalk Formation, which is the main scarp-forming unit, lies between Garschella Formation and the Kieselkalk (see Fig. 5). Violet numbers in brackets are (1) small-, (2) moderate-, and (3) large-scale faults. Fault set (3a) was active in the Turonian–Santonian and is mostly represented by the Eaux Froides Fault, whereas (3b) was active in the Early Maastrichtian (e.g. Sex Rouge-Donin Fault)
