FLAGG: GIS-Kompilation und -Analyse glaziofluvialer und glazialer Sedimentkörper im nördlichen Alpenvorland (D-AUT-CH)
Salcher, Bernhard (Projektleitung)
FLAGG I and II are projects that are funded by NAGRA Switzerland (https://www.nagra.ch/en). By applying and developing statistical methods to analyse digital elevation data of alluvial terraces the project aims to i) fully exploit the stratigraphic potential of stream terraces, ii) evaluate existing age models of Quaternary terrace deposits and to ii) decipher factors controlling alluvial terrace formation in space and time. The project targets the Swiss Alpine foreland benefitting from an exceptional topographic and geologic data base.   Main person involved: Thomas Pollhammer, MA (Univ. Salzburg)
