Submerged geomorphic record of Quaternary palaeoshorelines: terraces and clinothems along a shelf‐edge in the Žirje Archipelago, Adriatic Sea

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Numerous studies have shown that during the Quaternary there were substantial fluctuations in sea level in response to glacial–interglacial climate variability, reaching lowstand positions up to 134 m below the present sea level (b.s.l.). These fluctuations have had a strong influence on the morphology of shallow shelf seas, which preserve evidence of ...

Origin and Depositional Environments of the Evaporite and Carbonate Complex (Upper Permian) from the Central Part of the Dinarides (Southern Croatia and Western Bosnia)

open access: yesGeologia Croatica, 2010
The Upper Permian sediments from central part of the Dinarides contain three main facies : 1. - carbonates; 2.- evaporites with early diageneticaldolomites and 3.- clastic rocks (siltstones and sandstones) and one special rock type- carbonate ...

LGM glaciation in the northern Dinaric Mountains, Slovenia: new insights from terrestrial cosmogenic nuclide dating and Parallel Ice Sheet Model simulation

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The Dinaric Mountains are a mountain range stretching NW–SE from the Alps to the Albanides–Hellenides in central Europe. The highest parts were occupied by small ice fields and/or valley glaciers during the Quaternary cold periods, while even today some small glaciers still exist in topoclimatically favourable areas.

The explore of the development of the Bihać and Cazina basins by applying gravity data [PDF]

open access: yesTehnika
The Bihać and Cazina basins, classified as Neogene formations, are situated within the external Dinarides, originating during the late stages of Dinarides' evolution.

(Ultra)high‐Pressure Metamorphism in Sedimentary Versus Basaltic Rocks: Insights From a Variscan Mélange in the South Carpathians

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reconstructing the pressure–temperature–time (P–T–t) evolution of (ultra)high‐pressure rocks is essential for constraining subduction and collisional dynamics. Subduction zones are often investigated using basic eclogites, whereas nonbasic high‐pressure rocks remain comparatively understudied, potentially hindering a comprehensive ...

Plant endemism of the Balkan high‐mountain fens: a community‐level synthesis and their climate change perspective

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Balkan high‐mountain fens harbour unique endemic plant communities, with a west‐to‐east compositional gradient and local richness primarily shaped by palaeoclimate. As these fens have already experienced drier, warmer summers than at present, they may withstand climate change if actively and effectively protected. Abstract The phenomenon of Balkan high‐

Paleostress and kinematic evolution of the orogen-parallel NW-SE striking faults in the NW External Dinarides of Slovenia unraveled by mesoscale fault-slip data anaysis

open access: yesGeologia Croatica, 2016
The late Eocene to Recent dynamics of the NW External Dinarides in Slovenia are described. The study is focused on the orogen-parallel NW-SE striking family of faults, which represent the main source of seismic hazard in the NW External Dinarides today ...

Active Tectonics of the Eastern and Southern Alps ‐ Crustal Response to Deep Processes? A Review

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Owing to the low N‐S convergence rates between Adria and Europe, crustal deformation rates in the Alps and its forelands are low. Active tectonics are, therefore, difficult to study, especially as non‐tectonic landscape forming processes can erase or modify the tectonic surface imprint. Large‐scale and dense seismological data recently offered

Principles of the tectonic subdivision of Slovenia

open access: yesGeologija, 2008
New tectonic subdivision of the junction region between Alps and Dinarides which incorporates Eastern Alps, Southern Alps, Dinarides, Pannonian basin and Adriatic-Apulia foreland is described in this article.
