Abstract
In August 2001, Annali di Geofisica, 44 (4), pp. 659-669, published the paper: «Anomalous directional behaviour of the real parts of the induction arrows in the Eastern Alps: tectonic and palaeogeographic implications» written by Marcus Gurk and Pierre-Andre Schnegg. Concerning this paper we have two brief comments.
Highlights
1) The authors refer to the induction arrows (Wiese vectors) measured in the western part of Hungary as an indication of the eastward continuation of the directional behaviour of the real induction arrows hypothetically connected to the areal distribution of the Mesozoic sediments of the North Penninic Bündnerschiefer-facies
As the Hungarian results were not shown in their paper, for confirmation of the statement of Gurk and Schnegg, a map is given here in fig. 1 on all Hungarian real induction arrows, emphasizing the difference between the generally southward directed induction arrows measured inside the country and those obtained in its western border where the arrows rotate strongly westward according to the anomaly described in the referred paper
The observed tendency is geologically proved by the outcrops of the Penninic rocks in the Köszeg-Rechnitz Mountains
Summary
1) The authors refer to the induction arrows (Wiese vectors) measured in the western part of Hungary as an indication of the eastward continuation of the directional behaviour of the real induction arrows hypothetically connected to the areal distribution of the Mesozoic sediments of the North Penninic Bündnerschiefer-facies.
