The Early Cambrian echinoderm-sponge meadows, which colonized shallow carbonate-siliciclastic platforms, have received relatively little study despite their widespread occurrence in several regions of Gondwana...
Based on new structural data from an area in the Italian-French Western Alps, situated between the Petit Saint Bernard pass and the Gran Paradiso massif, the large-scale geometry of the tectonic features is es...
Like the other “external crystalline massifs” (ECM) of the Western Alps, the Pelvoux and Argentera massifs record a late and important uplift of the Prealpine basement in the immediate foreland of the internal...
Four species of decapod crustaceans from the Middle Jurassic Opalinus Clay (Aalenian) of Northern Switzerland are described. Of these, Mecochirus cf. eckerti is the most common one, while Eryma cf. bedelta, Glyph...
A new brachiopod, Arzonella exotica n. g. n. sp., from the Liassic (Broccatello) of Arzo in the Southern Alps of Switzerland was described. By the associated rhynchonellid brachiopod Sulcirostra alpina the strati...
This report of the Swiss Seismological Service summarizes the seismic activity in Switzerland and surrounding regions during 2003. During this period, 532 earthquakes and 118 quarry blasts were detected and lo...
The tectonic history of Neogene-Quaternary extensional structures has been documented in the inner part of the Northern Apennines (Rapolano Terme area) from Quaternary travertines and faults relationships. In ...
With reference to a study by Hofker (1963) on the evolution of the Cretaceous large foraminifer Orbitolina, Guex (1992, 2001) took the view that repeated abrupt size decreases in the deuteroconch of the embryo du...
The earthquake on December 9, 1755 is one of the major events in the Valais region, having an important influence on the seismic hazard assessment of the area. The re-evaluation of the event was undertaken in ...
The Frontal Penninic Units (FPU) south of Moûtiers (Savoie), are an important geometrical link between the internal and highly metamorphic Penninic units and the external fold-and thrust-belt of the Dauphinois...
Two deep scientific boreholes, named Poigny 701 and Sainte-Colombe 702, located in the Paris Basin near Provins (Seine-et-Marne, France), recovered a complete Upper Cretaceous chalk succession. A correlation b...
The study area, located north of Konya (Central Turkey), is composed of Silurian to Cretaceous metamorphosed rocks. The lower unit of the oldest formation (Silurian-Early Permian) is mostly made up of Silurian...
An overview of seismic activity in Central Switzerland is presented. As earthquake activity has been very low for the time period of modern instrumental observation, we focus on the largest known earthquakes i...
Analysis of the microflora from the Mississippian deposits of southwest Spain has revealed the presence of a new species: Palaepimastoporella espielensis new gen. new sp. It is assigned to the family Seletonellac...
Isolated dental remains of pycnodont fishes are recorded from the upper Norian (Upper Triassic) of the Germanic basin for the first time. The only complete prearticular dentition differs significantly from tho...
The Ponts valley syncline is a closed basin within the Neuchâtel Jura fold and thrust belt. This syncline, apparently uplifted to an altitude of around 1000m is closed in the SW by an anticline with an oblique...
The location of the September 3, 1295 earthquake has so far been assumed to be in the Central Alps. It was assessed at an intensity VIII in the catalogue MECOS 99 in MSK. This event was recently analyzed withi...
Sedimentological and palynological data from a high alpine karst cave in Switzerland are presented. The non-layered, unsorted sediments seem to be mainly morainic, brought into the cave on Jungfraujoch by ice ...
In the Leventina valley of southern Switzerland a mylonite zone marks the boundary between Leventina and Simano nappe. Quartz textures and deformation microstructures are used to obtain information about the d...
In the Eastern part of French Pyrenees, the Cucugnan area (Southern Corbières) corresponded during the early/Mid-Paleocene (Danian/Selandian) to a narrow transitional zone between the sea to the South (“Pyrene...
Luminescence dating and sedimentological observations at the Thalgut site, Aare Valley, Switzerland, imply deposition of glaciofluvial sediments and consequently a glacier advance during the earliest Late Plei...
This paper aims to describe the possible SE extension of the Zanskar Shear Zone and its relation with other extensional and compressional structures. New structural and metamorphic data were collected in the B...
Two isolated upper molars and a mandible with an almost complete dentition represent the first primates from the Middle Eocene Eckfeld maar (SW Eifel, Germany). They are described and determined as the cercamo...
.
Brittle faults and kinematic indicators have been measured systematically below and above the major late alpine extensional Simplon fault in the vicinity of Simplonpass. Paleo-stress inversion has been conduct...
The new tectonic map of the Alps is based on the combination of purely structural data with criteria regarding paleogeographical affiliation and/or tectono-metamorphic evolution. The orogenic evolution of the ...
The southern Rhinegraben represents a key area to unravel the Neogene paleohydrographic history of the northern Alpine foreland. At least, three successive main drainage systems are documented by the youngest ...
Numerous invertebrate trace fossils and small rare vertebrate tracks are reported and described from the Upper Oligocene deposits of the Lower Fresh-water Molasse in eastern Switzerland. They are commonly acco...
In order to understand the forcing and the feedback mechanisms working within the climate system knowledge of the timing of cold events across the globe is necessary. This information is especially crucial for...
A reconstruction of the last glacial maximum (LGM) ice-surface geometry in the western Swiss Alps and contiguous Alpine regions in Italy and France is based on detailed field mapping of glacial trimlines, ice-...
The sedimentary succession cropping out in central Brianza, in an area embracing the territories of Besana Brianza, Briosco (Milan Province), Arosio and Inverigo (Como Province), is properly ascribed to the Lo...
Located in the southern part of the Western Alps, the Argentera massif belongs to the paleo-European basement of the external domain. It experienced a polyphased deformation history, Hercynian and Alpine. The ...
High-resolution δ13C and δ18O curves, calibrated against planktonic foraminiferal and calcareous nannofossil biostratigraphy, are provided for the upper Aptian–lower Cenomanian pelagic succession of the Gargano P...
