The Department of Geology and Environmental Earth Science (GLG) organized their first annual Geosciences Student Research Symposium (GSRS) this spring. Held April 14 via Zoom, the symposium featured 17 research presentations from undergraduate and graduate students.
Coordinated by Assistant Professor of Geology
Carrie Tyler and Associate Professor of Geology
Mark Krekeler, the symposium relied on their partnership with student-run committees to plan the event, covering such topics as the effects humans have on the environment, sedimentology, earthquake forecasting, and forensic geochemistry.
Name of site
River Thur (1730 km2), NE Switzerland, and RECORD research site at Neunforn (http://www.cces.ethz.ch/projects/nature/Record)
Location
The River Thur is located in NE Switzerland, draining the front ranges of the Swiss NE Limestone Alps (south of the Bodensee basin). It is a tributary of the R. Rhine which flows into the North Sea.
Geology
The Thur catchment is a mainly Limestone dominated alpine headwater, whereas the pre-alpine lowlands are dominated by ‘Molasse’-Sandstones and Pleistocene unconsolidated sediments.
It is a primarily rural catchment with agricultural activity focussing on the lowlands and scattered settlements. St. Gallen (72,000 inhabitants) and Frauenfeld (23,000 inhabitants) are the largest towns in the Thur catchment.
