Abstract. Seismic reflection S-wave technique is very effective and has demonstrated nice results in previous investigations of various authors. However, the salt layer was not detected in the Ghor Al-Haditha area (Jordan) because of some reasons. The main reason is that about ~ 80 % of reflection lines were carried outside the salt area delineated by Ezersky et al. (2013b) based on results of El-Isa et al. (1995). Other possible factor is too strong filtering of seismic data obtained from the upper part of the section (up to 50 m deep). Our and Polom (2018) assessment of the work of other authors diverges. We affirm that the salt layer of 7–10 m thickness is located at ~ 40 m depth in the Ghor Al-Haditha area.

Abstract. In November 2010, a large sinkhole opened up in the urban area of Schmalkalden, Germany. To determine the key factors which benefited the development of this collapse structure and therefore the subrosion, we carried out several shear wave reflection seismic profiles around the sinkhole. In the seismic sections we see evidence of the Mesozoic tectonic movement, in the form of a NW–SE striking, dextral strike-slip fault, known as the Heßleser Fault, which faulted and fractured the subsurface below the town. The strike-slip faulting created a zone of small blocks (
