Mapping of young tectonic and halocinetic structures in Schleswig-Holstein by interpretation of seismic profiles and fieldwork

与RWE/DEA一起对地震剖面进行的初步研究表明，错开第三系底部的断层往往会影响陆地表面的形态。在这项提议中，我们将使用石勒苏益格-荷尔斯泰因整个地区的“施沃朋克计划”(SPP)中可获得的所有地震线，系统地绘制地壳最上面500米处的断层图，并将它们投射到陆地表面。将预测的断层线纳入地理信息系统，并使用航空照片/实地工作来查看是否可以检测到相应的植被和地表形态模式。石勒苏益格-荷尔斯泰因地区的特点是广泛的盐底辟作用，侧翼有深槽；然而，也有从二叠纪底部下方延伸到地表的深断层，看起来不受盐碱作用的影响。绘制该州整个地区这两种类型的断层图将显示现代/次现代构造/盐碱作用活跃的位置，从而提供大约20.000年前最后一次大陆冰盖消退以来盆地状态的证据。

A pilot study of seismic profiles together with RWE/DEA has shown that faults offsetting the base of the Tertiary often effect the morphology of the land surface. In this proposal we will use all seismic lines accessable in the "Schwerpunktprogramm" (SPP) for the entire area of Schleswig-Holstein to map systematically faults in the uppermost 500m of the crust and project them to the land surface. The projected fault lines are incorporated in a GIS (Geoscientific Information System) and aerial photographs/fieldwork are used to see if corresponding patterns in vegetation and surface morphology can be detected. The area of Schleswig-Holstein is characterised by widespread salt diapirism with deep troughs at the flanks; however there are also deep faults that reach from well below the base of the Permian up to the surface and appear independent of halocinesis. Mapping both types of faults for the entire area of the state will show where recent/subrecent tectonism/halocinesis was active and thus give evidence on the state of the basin since the retreat of the last continental ice sheets some 20.000 years ago.
