Map of the Doubs River (a), and its longitudinal profile (b) and ksn evolution (c). Lithological, karst and structural details have been reported along the Doubs path. Knickpoints (red circles) have been located and classified in size by their intensities (ksn values). Each knickzone has been interpreted regarding geological map of the BRGM (http://editions.brgm.fr/cartegeol.jsp) and from Swisstopo (http://www.swisstopo.admin.ch/internet/swisstopo/fr/home/products/maps.html), topographic maps from IGN (http://www.ign.fr) and Swisstopo, and hydrological maps from the OFEV (http://www.bafu.admin.ch) and the DREAL (http://carmen.application.developpement-durable.gouv.fr/14/CarteInfo.map) in term of potential lithological, structural (tectonic), anthropogenic, and karst forcing (for color code, see legend). See Sects. 2.1.2 and 4.1 for further details
