The objective of the National Research Program 20 (NRP 20), funded by the Chapter 7 covers three study areas in the Jura Mountains. In section 7. 1 a Swiss National Science Foundation, was to explore the deep structure of the reinterpretation of industry lines shed new light on the internal structure of Swiss Alps combining geophysical and geological methods. The data were the Folded Jura of the Neuchatel area. Here the role of thrust faults underly collected between 1986 and 1993. Processing and interpretation of the data ing major anticlines had previously been underestimated. Some of the folds involved over 50 researchers from Swiss universities and from industry. The could be interpreted as fault-propagation folds, with a detachment in the aim of this Atlas is to draw all this work together into a coherent compilation Muschelkalk evaporites. Section 7. 2 discusses the Tabular Jura around Basel. of the geological and geophysical data, their interpretation and integration A seismic line through this Basel Jura images the Moho on the southern flank into the tectonic evolution of the Swiss Alps. This turned out to be a difficult of the Black Forest-Vosges basement uplifts and suggests the presence of task. Late Paleozoic troughs underneath the Tabular Jura.

The novel tectonic model of the deep crustal structure of the Alpine collision zone is the result of an integration of seismic reflection and refraction data and structural data. Besides data gathered from the crust/mantle boundary, significant new insight was gained from the shallower structures. This includes 3D, subsurface mapping of Alpine nappes and basement uplifts, as well as valleys incised deeply into the bedrock to levels several hundreds of meters below the present sea level. The structure of the Alps is also discussed in the framework of the geodynamic evolution - from Mesozoic sedimentation to Cenozoic subduction and collision. NRP 20 involved researchers from the Swiss Universities and the Federal Institute of Technology, as well as earth scientists from industry. Funding from the Swiss National Science Foundation was subsequently backed up by contributions from the participating universities and the Federal Institute of Technology and from industry. This book will interest students and researchers eager to have an up to date view of the Alpine orogen, its structure and evolution as a typical example of a con- tinental collision zone. The presentation of the full seismic sections, their geological interpretation, as well as geological profiles will interest readers not only in the field of geophysics and geology, but in earth sciences in general.
