Summary[edit]
| Description |
Deutsch: Abgeschnürte, nahezu trockene Flussschleife (Mäander) mit stark rundum erodiertem Umlaufberg „Lützelberg“. Die Obere Donau verließ in der Riß-Zeit (Mittlere Pleistozän), das von ihr auf der Schwäbischen Alb über Millionen Jahre bis Ulm entwickelte gebirgige 42 km lange Flusstal gänzlich – der Mänder von Schelklingen war schon vorher abgeschnürt worden. Das ehemalige Donautal bis Ulm wird seitdem vom kleinen Fluss Blau genutzt. Damals verließ die Donau schon in Ehingen die Schwäbische Alb und schuf sich ein auf 27 km verkürztes Flussbett im relativ ebenen Gelände an der Grenze zwischen Schwäbischer Alb und präalpinem Molassebecken. Im Vordergrund: der Ort Schelklingen. English: Cut Meander with eroded “core” (small mountain) around, “Lützelberg”, Upper Danube, Swabian Alb. The Upper Danube abandoned its 42 km long mountainous valley, which it eroded in several million years on the Swabian Alb towards Ulm. The former Danube valley from then on was used by the relatively small river Blau. Now, the Danube left the Swabian Alb already at Ehingen, digging a new riverbed of only 27 km into a relatively flat terrain further south, where the territory of the north-alpine Molasse basin follows the plateau of the Swabian Alb. |
