The Helicoidal Fault Systems of Vinodol (Croatia) and Their Genesis

Geologia Croatica, 2010
The basic geological features of the helicoidal fault systems of the Vinodol area are outlined. Its genesis is explained by a model proposing collisional stress implied on previollsly formed en echelon folds.

High-Resolution Crustal S-wave Velocity Model and Moho Geometry Beneath the Southeastern Alps: New Insights From the SWATH-D Experiment

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
We compiled a dataset of continuous recordings from the temporary and permanent seismic networks to compute the high-resolution 3D S-wave velocity model of the Southeastern Alps, the western part of the external Dinarides, and the Friuli and Venetian ...

Waiting for the rains: An attempt to evaluate the efficiency of the large Roman cistern at Barbariga Stancija (Casematte, Istria, Croatia)

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 1, Page 99-117, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Access to freshwater has always been a critical factor in sustaining human settlements, especially in regions with limited water resources. In the Mediterranean region, where dry summers and karst landscapes limit water availability, ancient societies developed advanced methods for collecting and storing rainwater. Among these, cisterns played

A brief insight into the Upper Triassic to Miocene sedimentary succession of the External Dinarides, SE of Dubrovnik (southern Croatia)

, 2023
The Konavle area located in the very southeast of the Republic of Croatia encompasses a large part of the entire External Dinarides sedimentary sequence, almost 5 km in thickness.

The Two Stages of Structural Formation of the Coastal Belt of the External Dinarides

Geologia Croatica, 2010
Two successive stages of tectonism have been responsible for the formation of structures in the coastal part of the External Dinarides. As a result, Dinaride- and Hvar-striking structures formed, showing NW-SE and E-W strike orientation, respectively.

Defining Illyrian Forests: The Role of Biogeographical Patterns and Species Co‐Occurrence

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim This study had four aims: (1) to group traditional mesophilous indicator species of Illyrian forests based on their distribution patterns; (2) to gain insight into the biogeographic attributes of each group by hotspot analyses; (3) to clarify the level of importance that certain species have in the floristic differentiation of Illyrian ...

Earthquake rates inferred from active faults and geodynamics: the case of the External Dinarides

, 2014
The goal of earthquake rate models is to define the long-term rate of seismicity above an established magnitude threshold. No earthquake rate models exist for the External Dinarides, although this area is prone to frequent earthquakes that have ...

Leaf Anatomy, Volatile Metabolite Profile, and Cytotoxic Activity of the Endemic Seseli tomentosum Vis.: Insights Into Species‐Specific Adaptations

Plant Direct, Volume 9, Issue 11, November 2025.
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.

Mantle Structure Beneath the Greater Alpine Region From Teleseismic Full P‐Waveform Inversion

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract AlpArray data were employed to infer a new mantle model of the Alps from teleseismic full P‐waveform inversion. It features hybrid numerical forward modeling in the time domain, compression of wavefields by Fourier transform at selected frequencies, the use of frequency domain waveform sensitivity kernels and a multi‐scale approach by ...

Kinematic and paleostress evolution of the NW-SE trending "dinaric" faults in the northwestern external Dinarides [PDF]

, 2015
The main regional structures in the Dinarides where accumulated lithospheric stress has been relaxed are NW-SE trending Dinaric faults. The research involves kinematic and dynamic analysis of fault-slip data on the territory of the NW External Dinarides,
