Major target of the interdisciplinary project is the compilation and interpretation of a series of high-resolution maps to study the structural evoltuon of the coastal area of the Mecklenburg Bay (northern Germany) with geophysical and geologcial data in order to identify and evaluate potential fault systems in different scales. The pre-Alpine to Recent evolution of the Central European Basin System, which is presently a low-seismic area, will be investigated. The understandig of the post- and pre-Alpine structural history and the reactivation of faults requires the characterizsation of deformation including mapping of faults, fault kinematics and slip/subsidence rates over variois geological time scales. A unique commercial data base of the former GDR provides some 1770 km of seimic profiling across major faults, covering the sedimentary sequences from the Rotliegend on. But, seismic information needs to be reprocessed and interpreted in terms of analyzing the interplay between the possible causative processes, like change of the regional stress field, reactivation of Paleozoic tectonic lineaments, halokinesis, and recent processes like sedimentation and glaciation, and their impact on interaction fault and sedimentation.
