[Title of the Document] Assessment and mapping of potential interferences to the installation of NSGE systems in the Alpine Regions Assessment and mapping of potential interferences to the installation of NSGE systems in the Alpine Regions Deliverable D.4.1.1 – Assessment and mapping of potential interferences to the installation of NSGE systems in the Alpine Regions 16/12/2015 – 07/09/2018: A large-scale web GIS map of possible underground interferences with Near-Surface Geothermal Energy systems will be published online, together with a reference guide explaining how the input data were collected, homogenized and processed. Version: Revision 02, 04 September 2018 This document was written in the framework of the ERDF funded project GRETA (16/12/2015 – 14/12/2018). It is the first deliverable of the Work Package 4 (or WPT3 according to the EmS numbering of WPs) “Assessment and mapping of the potential of Near-Surface Geothermal Energy (NSGE)”. The Politecnico di Torino (POLITO), as responsible partner of WP4, developed this report with contribution of the following project partners: TUM, EURAC, ARPA Valle d’Aosta, GeoZS, BRGM, GBA, University of Basel, and Regione Lombardia. This deliverable deals with the large-scale mapping of geological features and other factors (environmental issues, bans, law restrictions, etc.) which may interfere with the installation of Borehole Heat Exchangers and/or water wells for Ground Water Heat Pumps. For this assessment, the involved partners collected and processed geo-referenced data of such features, which were put together in a Web GIS available on line. Also, partners provided sources for other kinds of data (books, articles, papers, web-viewer, pdf maps etc.) which are not in GIS formats. This report therefore serves as a reference guide of the Web GIS and as a complementary source of information about risks, interferences, issues and possible solutions for installers, designers, and public authorities involved in the design, approval and installation of NSGE systems. GRETA is co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund through the Interreg Alpine Space programme.

The outcrop provides a rich Upper Sinemurian (Lower Jurassic) ammo- nite fauna of the Allgäu Formation. The area is situated in the westernmost part of the Schneeberg Syncline in the north of the Reichraming Nappe (High Bajuvaric Unit). The ammonite fauna consists of seven different genera, each apparently represented by 1–2 species. Echioceratids are the most frequent components (Echioceras, Leptechioceras, Paltechioceras), followed by the phylloceratids (Juraphyllites, Partschiceras) and oxynoticeratids (Gleviceras, Paroxynoticeras). Juraphyllites libertus, Partschiceras striatocostatum, Gleviceras paniceum, Echioceras quenstedti, Echioceras raricostatoides, Paltechioceras boehmi, Leptechioceras meigeni, Leptechioceras macdonnelli and Paltechioceras oosteri are new for the Schneeberg Syn- cline and allow for the first time a detailed biostratigraphy of the Echioceras raricostatum zone.

  • Local and Far Field Stress-Analysis of Brittle Deformation in the Western Part of the Northern Calcareous Alps, Austria
    Geol. Paläont. Mitt. Innsbruck, ISSN 0378–6870, Band 26, S. 109–136, 2003 LOCAL AND FAR FIELD STRESS-ANALYSIS OF BRITTLE DEFORMATION IN THE WESTERN PART OF THE NORTHERN CALCAREOUS ALPS, AUSTRIA Hugo Ortner With 25 figures and 1 table Abstract Brittle deformation was analysed in 86 stations with in the western Northern Calcareous Alps (NCA). Six paleostress ten- sor groups were defined, which constrain the deformational history since onset of Alpine deformation and can be related to distinct stages of deformation in other parts of the orogen. The superposition of deformational events with stress ten- sors of the same geometry, but different ages was estblished. The evolution of the far field stresses (1st order stress), which are thought to be related to plate movements, was simple: Cretaceous NW-directed compression was followed by Paleocene/Eocene NNE-directed compression, which in turn was replaced by Oligocene/Miocene NNW-directed compres- sion. Local stress fields (2nd order stress) complicate the picture: Cretaceous NW-compression was partitioned into NNW- directed compression in the NCA and W-directed compression in the Central Alps. Oligocene/Miocene NNW-directed compression was superposed by secondary stress fields related to lateral escape of crustal blocks during formation of the metamorphic core complex of the Tauern Window: N- to NNE-directed compression near large faults delimiting eastward moving blocks and E-directed extension. Third order stress fields are related to folding. The succession of these 3rd order stress fields is not systematic. Additionally, stress tensors related to Late Miocene E-W compression were recorded, which are related to collision in the Carpathian orogen.

It is to be seen as the predecessor of the final version of the same-titled AAF FM, which will be published after the testing phase of this manual. The present FM (f.t.) was developed in cooperation with the German Bundeswehr (Bw) in order to ensure standardized training. In the Bw it is called C2-227/0-0-1550 “Gebirgsausbildung”. This FM (f.t.) is meant to provide knowledge and skills on: - geographical, geological, meteorological, and common basics for military operations in mountainous terrain, - safe and secure movements and survival in mountainous and high mountain regions, – mountain rescue, and – mountaineering equipment, which are preconditions for the accomplishment of military tasks.

Typisch für diesen Gebirgsstock ist ein hoher Anteil an subatlantischen und präalpischen Florenelementen. Daneben zeichnen sich die Chiemgauer Alpen durch mehrere seltene Arten aus, die in den Feuchtgebieten der Tallagen vor- kommen. Aber auch die Flora der subalpinen und alpinen Stufe weist einige pflanzengeographisch bemerkenswerte Sippen auf.

  • From Trieste to Monaco a Hiking Trail to Discover the Eight Alpine Countries
    THE VIA ALPINA From Trieste to Monaco A hiking trail to discover the eight Alpine countries Project presentation February 2014 Via Alpina – Project presentation, February 2014 1 Via Alpina, right through the Alps… At the outset the area was immense and the project a truly ambitious one: to help discover a unique region of 200,000 square kilometres of peaks and valleys, of high mountain pastures and forests, of large villages and hamlets by creating THE definitive trail for hiking and the discovery of the entire Alpine space. Since 2002 the Via Alpina has been winding from Trieste (Italy) to Monaco, from the Adriatic sea to the Mediterranean, its 5000 kilometres of walking tracks marked out into 5 trails through eight European countries: Slovenia, Italy, Austria, Germany, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, France and the Principality of Monaco. It gives you an exceptional invitation to discover, on foot, through some of the most fabulous mountain landscapes, the history, culture and the way of life in the Alpine mountain communities. Via Alpina – Project presentation, February 2014 2 And first, a bit of history… 1991: a political will – The Alpine Convention is signed. An international Treaty ratified by eight countries – Germany, Austria, Italy, Switzerland, Slovenia, Liechtenstein and Monaco – and the European Union, with the shared objective of ensuring sustainable development of the entire Alpine region (see also page 12). 1999: a visionary project – On the initiative of the Grande Traversée des Alpes (a French association specialising in walking tourism) a project for a great transalpine walking trail is launched both as a symbolic link between the eight countries who have signed up to the Alpine Convention, as the cultural expression of the Alpine region and to support the development of sustainable tourism.
