Young Uplift in the Non-Glaciated Parts of the Eastern Alps, Earth Planet
THOMAS WAGNER YOUNG UPLIFT IN THE NON -GLACIATED PARTS OF THE EASTERN ALPS GEOMORPHOLOGICAL AND GEOCHRONOLOGICAL CONSTRAINTS A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Natural Science Karl-Franzens University of Graz Austria for the Degree of Doctor of Science September 2010 “Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.” T.S. Eliot PREAMBLE The study of the growth of mountains and the evolution of their landforms is a subject at the heart of Earth sciences. However, only newly available geochronological methods allow to constrain the timing of formation of landforms in more detail. In particular the evolution of landforms in Pliocene to Pleistocene times is much debated, because of a worldwide increase in sedimentation rates observed at the same time. Climate changes and tectonic processes are possible candidates to explain this increase. The research effort presented in this thesis fills the gap of knowledge concerning the topographic evolution of the last few million years to today’s face of a region along the eastern margin of the Alps: the Styrian Block. This block includes the Styrian Basin and its surrounding basement. New time constraints from various cave, stream and fault deposits are reported and are interpreted in terms of river incision rates, aggradation and re-excavation events. Uplift rates of the region are estimated. DEM data are used to identify the geomorphic disequilibrium of the whole Alps. The results support the notion that tectonically driven deformation and responding erosion is taking place to an increased level over the last 5-6 Ma. -

Characterizing the Spatiotemporal Variability of Groundwater
Characterizing the spatiotemporal variability of groundwater levels of alluvial aquifers in different settings using drought indices Johannes Christoph Haas1, 2 and Steffen Birk1, 2 1Institute of Earth Sciences, NAWI Graz Geocenter, University of Graz, Austria 2FWF-DK Climate Change, University of Graz, Austria Correspondence to: Johannes Christoph Haas ([email protected]) Abstract. To improve the understanding of how aquifers in different alluvial settings respond to extreme events in a changing environment, we analyze standardized time series of groundwater levels (Standardized Groundwater level Index - SGI), pre- cipitation (Standardized Precipitation Index - SPI), and river stages of three subregions within the catchment of the river Mur (Austria). Using correlation matrices, differences and similarities between the subregions, ranging from the Alpine upstream 5 part of the catchment to its shallow foreland basin, are identified and visualized. Generally, river stages exhibit the highest correlations with groundwater levels, frequently affecting not only the wells closest to the river, but also more distant parts of the alluvial aquifer. As a result, human impacts on the river are transferred to the aquifer, thus affecting the behavior of groundwater levels. Hence, to avoid misinterpretation of groundwater levels in this type of setting, it is important to account for the river and human impacts on it. 10 While the river is a controlling factor in all of the subregions, an influence of precipitation is evident too. Except for deep wells found in an upstream Alpine basin, groundwater levels show the highest correlation with a precipitation accumulation period of six months (SPI6). The correlation in the foreland is generally higher than that in the Alpine subregions, thus corre- sponding to a trend from deeper wells in the Alpine parts of the catchment towards more shallow wells in the foreland. -

DNA Profiling and Assessment of Genetic Diversity of Relict Species
DNA profiling and assessment of genetic diversity of relict species Allium altaicum Pall. on the territory of Altai Oxana Khapilina1, Olesya Raiser1, Alevtina Danilova2, Vladislav Shevtsov1, Ainur Turzhanova1 and Ruslan Kalendar3,4 1 National Center for Biotechnology, Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan 2 Altai Botanical Garden, Ridder, Kazakhstan 3 Department of Agricultural Sciences, University of Helsinki, Helsinki, Finland 4 National Laboratory Astana, Nazarbayev University, Nur-Sultan, Aqmola, Kazakhstan ABSTRACT Analysis of the genetic diversity of natural populations of threatened and endangered species of plants is a main aspect of conservation strategy. The endangered species Allium altaicum is a relict plant of the Ice Age and natural populations are located in extreme climatic conditions of Kazakstan’s Altai Mountains. Mobile genetic elements and other interspersed repeats are basic components of a eukaryote genome, which can activate under stress conditions and indirectly promote the survival of an organism against environmental stresses. Detections of chromosomal changes related to recombination processes of mobile genetic elements are performed by various PCR methods. These methods are based on interspersed repeat sequences and are an effective tool for research of biological diversity of plants and their variability. In our research, we used conservative sequences of tRNA primer binding sites (PBS) when initializing the retrotransposon replication as PCR primers to research the genetic diversity of 12 natural populations of A. altaicum found in various ecogeographic conditions of the Kazakhstani Altai. High efficiency of the PBS amplification method used was observed already at the intrapopulation level. Unique amplicons representative of a certain population were found at the Submitted 12 August 2020 intrapopulation level.
