Currently recognised lithospheric models hypothesise the non-existence of a lithospheric slab (a so-called slab gap) in the area of the Northern Dinarides, and the possible existence of a shallow slab in the Southern Dinarides.

Reference seismic crustal model of the Dinarides [PDF]
Continental collision zones are structurally one of the most heterogeneous areas intermixing various different units within a relatively small space. A good example of this is the Dinarides, a mountain chain situated in the central Mediterranean, where ...

Post-collisional mantle delamination in the Dinarides implied from staircases of Oligo-Miocene uplifted marine terraces [PDF]
The Dinarides fold-thrust belt on the Balkan Peninsula resulted from convergence between the Adriatic and Eurasian plates since Mid-Jurassic times. Under the Dinarides, S-wave receiver functions, P-wave tomographic models, and shear-wave splitting data ...

Climate Change Sensitivity and Regional Differences of the Upper Limit of Montane Deciduous Broad-Leaved Forests Across the Northern Hemisphere. [PDF]
We developed a cloud model–based framework integrating multisource remote sensing data to quantify the climate change sensitivity of the upper limit of montane deciduous broad‐leaved forests (ULMDBs) across the Northern Hemisphere. Results reveal strong regional differences, with temperature dominating ULMDB sensitivity in humid regions and ...

Lithospheric thickness under the Dinarides [PDF]
The nature of the interaction between Adriatic and Euroasian lithospheric plates in the Dinarides is important for understanding the complex tectonic history of the central Mediterranean. Using the data from permanent and temporary seismic stations in the wider Dinaric region, we imaged the lithospheric and upper mantle structure under this area ...

Thermomineral waters of inner Dinarides Karst
The Dinarides are the largest continuous karst region in Europe. With regard to a geotectonic view, they are divided into the Outer, Central and Inner Dinarides occupying the territories of Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and Montenegro.

Seismotectonically Active Zones in the Dinarides
Seismotectonically active zones are formed due to displacements of segments of the Adriatic micro-plate that differ in size and in their rate of movement, and by the resistance of the rock masses of the Dinarides.

Dispersal Beyond Mountains and Borders: Asymmetrical Gene Flow Helps Maintain Brown Bear Metapopulation Connectivity on the Balkan Peninsula. [PDF]
We investigated the genetic structure and connectivity of the two core brown bear populations in the Balkan Peninsula. Using microsatellite and mitochondrial DNA, we found weak but clear population structure, yet also signals of functional connectivity among subpopulations preserved by asymmetrical gene flow, We discuss the implications of our findings

Leaf Anatomy, Volatile Metabolite Profile, and Cytotoxic Activity of the Endemic <i>Seseli tomentosum</i> Vis.: Insights Into Species-Specific Adaptations. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Seseli tomentosum Vis. is an endemic species distributed along the eastern coast of the Adriatic Sea. In this study, the leaf structure as observed by light and electron microscopy, the phytochemical composition of the volatile organic compounds, and the cytotoxic activity of S. tomentosum are presented.

From shallow-water carbonate ramp to hemipelagic deep-marine carbonate deposition: Part 3. Lithostratigraphy and Formations of the Middle to Late Anisian Bulog sedimentary successions (Bulog Group) in the Dinarides (Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Montenegro) [PDF]
In the Middle Anisian the opening of the Neo‐Tethys started and this is characterized by a significant change in deposition in the whole Western Tethys Realm.
