  • Full-Waveform Inversion of Gpr Data from the Thur River Aquifer
    FULL-WAVEFORM INVERSION OF GPR DATA FROM THE THUR RIVER AQUIFER Published in Near Surface Geophysics: Klotzsche, A., van der Kruk, J., Meles, G. A., Doetsch, J., Maurer, H., and Linde, N., 2010, Full-waveform inversion of cross- hole ground-penetrating radar data to characterize a gravel aquifer close to the Thur River, Switzerland: Near Surface Geophysics, 8, 635-649. 0 Full-waveform inversion of GPR data from the Thur River aquifer ABSTRACT Crosshole radar tomography is a useful tool for mapping shallow subsurface electrical properties viz. dielectric permittivity and electrical conductivity. Common practice is to invert crosshole radar data with ray-based tomographic algorithms using first arrival traveltimes and first cycle amplitudes. However, the resolution of conventional standard ray-based inversion schemes for crosshole ground penetrating radar (GPR) is limited because only a fraction of the information contained in the radar data is used. The resolution can be improved significantly by using a full-waveform inversion that considers the entire waveform, or significant parts thereof. A recently developed 2-D time-domain vectorial full-waveform crosshole radar inversion code has been modified in the present study by allowing optimized acquisition setups that reduce the acquisition time and computational costs significantly. This is achieved by minimizing the number of transmitter points and maximizing the number of receiver positions. The improved algorithm was employed to invert crosshole GPR data acquired within a gravel aquifer (4 - 10 m depth) in the Thur valley, Switzerland. The simulated traces of the final model obtained by the full-waveform inversion fit the observed traces very well in the lower part of the section and reasonably well in the upper part of the section.

  • Quaternary Glaciation History of Northern Switzerland
    Quaternary Science Journal GEOzOn SCiEnCE MEDiA Volume 60 / number 2–3 / 2011 / 282–305 / DOi 10.3285/eg.60.2-3.06 iSSn 0424-7116 E&G www.quaternary-science.net Quaternary glaciation history of northern switzerland Frank Preusser, Hans Rudolf Graf, Oskar keller, Edgar krayss, Christian Schlüchter Abstract: A revised glaciation history of the northern foreland of the Swiss Alps is presented by summarising field evidence and chronologi- cal data for different key sites and regions. The oldest Quaternary sediments of Switzerland are multiphase gravels intercalated by till and overbank deposits (‘Deckenschotter’). Important differences in the base level within the gravel deposits allows the distin- guishing of two complex units (‘Höhere Deckenschotter’, ‘Tiefere Deckenschotter’), separated by a period of substantial incision. Mammal remains place the older unit (‘Höhere Deckenschotter’) into zone MN 17 (2.6–1.8 Ma). Each of the complexes contains evidence for at least two, but probably up-to four, individual glaciations. In summary, up-to eight Early Pleistocene glaciations of the Swiss alpine foreland are proposed. The Early Pleistocene ‘Deckenschotter’ are separated from Middle Pleistocene deposition by a time of important erosion, likely related to tectonic movements and/or re-direction of the Alpine Rhine (Middle Pleistocene Reorganisation – MPR). The Middle-Late Pleistocene comprises four or five glaciations, named Möhlin, Habsburg, Hagenholz (uncertain, inadequately documented), Beringen, and Birrfeld after their key regions. The Möhlin Glaciation represents the most extensive glaciation of the Swiss alpine foreland while the Beringen Glaciation had a slightly lesser extent. The last glacial cycle (Birrfeld Glaciation) probably comprises three independent glacial advances dated to ca.

The International Sediment Initiative (ISI) of UNESCO provides with its projects an important contribution to sustainable sediment and water management in river basins. With the processing of exemplary case studies from large river basins good examples of sediment management prac- tices have been prepared and successful strategies and procedures will be made accessible to experts from other river basins. The CHR produced the “Case Study Rhine” in the framework of ISI. Sediment experts of the Rhine riparian states of Switzerland, Austria, Germany and The Netherlands have implemented their experiences in this publication.

Special 5 focus is given on the temporal and spatial variations and underlying meteorological causes which show a significant change over space and time. Examples are presented how long-term information can help to improve transnational risk and risk management analysis while connecting single historical and modern extreme events. 1 Introduction 10 The knowledge about the occurrence of floods in historical times, their meteorologi- cal causes and their distribution within the (hydrological) year does provide a deeper understanding of the natural variability of the severity of flood events by providing long- term knowledge about changes in the causes, frequencies and gravities of the floods.
