Abstract:
The Bouguer anomaly is defined as the difference between the gravity measured at a specific point on the Earth’s surface and a gravity value calculated at the same point assuming that the Earth’s crust is homogeneous. This map shows both the regional negative anomalies associated with the Alps and the positive anomaly of the Sesia–Finero zone that signifies an excess of mass at depth.
purpose:
Die Geologische Karte der Schweiz 1:500 000 liefert eine wichtige Datengrundlage und ein Werkzeug für das bessere Verständnis unserer Umwelt zwecks einer nachhaltigen Entwicklung. Sie ist ein unumgängliches Hilfsmittel für die Ausbildung in den Bereichen Erd- und Umweltwissenschaften und Naturgefahren. Gegenüber der vorhergehenden Ausgabe, die vor mehr als 25 Jahren erschien, zeigt die aktuelle Auflage einen deutlich verbesserten Detaillierungsgrad. Die neuen und überarbeiteten geologischen Daten der letzten Jahrzehnte sind in die aktuelle Auflage mit eingeflossen. Die detailliertere Legende ist dank eines überarbeiteten Layouts nun leichter lesbar und damit besser verständlich.
