Summary of the major tectonic events in the study area. Left column: the major events summarized in a given deformation phase; central column: selected literature names for the shown phases; right column: schematic sketch of the deformation; light gray: Doldenhorn Nappe, intermediate gray Upper Helvetic nappes, black: Gotthard Nappe, diagonal hatches: Penninic units. The deformation phases are sorted in relation to their structural overprint relationships, but the geodynamic processes are continuous
