This study examines how and why the accumulation and preservation of aeolian sands are influenced by the character of karstic basement landforms. The studied examples are Late Pleistocene aeolian sands and underlying karstified carbonates of Southeastern Adriatic islands. To address this issue the spacial relationship between karstified bedrock and aeolian cover, aeolian and associated fluvial facies,...
Early Miocene transpressional wrenching yielded a series of NW–SE-elongated pull-apart basins in the Dinarides of Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina. They accommodated a huge lake system that gave rise to spectacular endemic mollusk radiation. Lake Sinj, moderately sized at 342 km2, flooded the south-westernmost basin of this system. Due to the karstic environment, the hard-water, alkaline, long-lived...
Pontian deposits of the Zagorje Basin constitute a coarsening-upward succession, which reflects the infilling style of this Pannonian sub-basin, i.e. the progradation of clastic systems into the brackish lake. Six facies differentiated correspond to lake floor, channelled slope, distal and proximal pro-delta, distal and proximal mouth bars, and lagoon/bay to swamp and alluvial environments. The deposition...
