Abstract
The EU funded interdisciplinary ENvironmental TECtonics research network (ENTEC) addresses relationships between deeper lithospheric processes, neotectonics and surface processes in the northern Alpine foreland. Its objectives are to quantify the effects of ongoing Alpine collision on NW European Foreland intraplate deformation and its impact on surface geomorphology and natural hazards. Three natural laboratories have been selected: (1) the Lower Rhine Graben (LRG), (2) the Upper Rhine Graben (URG), and (3) the Vienna Basin (VB). These three areas record the manifestation of neotectonics within the Alpine orogen (VB), at its front (URG) and in the far field area (LRG).
