Mysteries of Alpine Caves – Evidence of Tectonic Activity

Instrumental studies indicate that the northern part of the Eastern Alps exhibits minimal tectonic activity today, with deformation rates at the limit of detectability. The geological record also shows little evidence on the surface, as erosion outpaces deformation. However, in caves isolated from erosion, even centimeter-scale deformations can be preserved. The 110 km long Königssee–Lammertal–Traunsee...
