The employed methods included potential field multiscale techniques for source-edge location and characterization of sources at depth. Our results confirmed the presence of already known structures: the location of the Diendorf Fault and the Moldanubian Shearzone are clearly recognized in the data at the same location as on the geological maps, even where the Diendorf fault is covered with sediments of the Molasse Basin. In addition, we detected several geological contacts between different rock types in the Bohemian Massif west of the Diendorf Fault. From our results, we were also able to quickly identify and image, without a priori information, previously unknown structures, such as faults with-depth-to-the top of about 500 m and magmatic intrusions about 400 m deep.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs14081807","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,4,9]],"date-time":"2022-04-09T05:13:08Z","timestamp":1649481188000},"page":"1807","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Geophysical Study of the Diendorf-Boskovice Fault System (Austria)"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7312-2776","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Valeria","family":"Paoletti","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Dipartimento di Scienze della Terra, dell\u2019Ambiente e delle Risorse, University of Naples Federico II, Via Vicinale Cupa Cintia 21, 80126 Naples, Italy"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8308-2050","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Esther","family":"Hintersberger","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Geological Survey of Austria, Neulinggasse 38, 1080 Vienna, Austria"}]},{"given":"Ingrid","family":"Schattauer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Geological Survey of Austria, Neulinggasse 38, 1080 Vienna, Austria"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8907-6428","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Maurizio","family":"Milano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Dipartimento di Scienze della Terra, dell\u2019Ambiente e delle Risorse, University of Naples Federico II, Via Vicinale Cupa Cintia 21, 80126 Naples, Italy"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3729-4327","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gian Piero","family":"Deidda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Dipartimento di Ingegneria Civile, Ambientale e Architettura, University of Cagliari, Via Marengo 2, 09123 Cagliari, Italy"}]},{"given":"Robert","family":"Supper","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Geological Survey of Austria, Neulinggasse 38, 1080 Vienna, Austria"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,4,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Blakely, R.J.
