Towards a Seismogenic Source Model of The TOWARDS A SEISMOGENIC SOURCSOURCEE MODEL OF THE DINARIDES KASTELIC VANJA1, TIBERTI MARA MONICA1, ROVIDA ANDREA2, ALBINI PAOLA2, BASILI ROBERTO1 1- INGV - Roma1; 2 - INGV - Milano-Pavia e-mail: [email protected] Outline Geology-based seismogenic source models are becoming the fundamental input for seismic hazard assessment at the scale of an entire country. In this work, we illustrate in simple steps the complex process that leads from basic data to a fully-fledged seismogenic source model of the Dinaride thrust belt, running along coastal Croatia, Montenegro and part of Albania. We started from a layer of basic geological and structural data and explored a wide range of indicators of recent tectonic activity, such as drainage anomalies/diversions and displaced or warped geological markers. We then analyzed the interplay of these indicators with known or prospective tectonic structures. To the picture thus obtained, we added a layer with a revised historical seismic catalog and selected a few earthquakes for which we re-estimate epicenter and magnitude. At the end of our analyses we combined all these data in a structured GIS database. With these data at hand, we also compared the longer-term indicators with present-day stress/strain data such as GPS velocities and earthquake focal solutions. Following the approach already developed for the construction of the Database of Individual Seismogenic Sources for Italy, we developed a seismogenic source model for the Dinarides in which the better constrained seismogenic faults have been mapped and parameterized and made ready for use in seismic hazard practice. 1.

From this position, I would like to thank the members of the thesis examining committee; Giorgos Papatheodorou, Professor and supervisor of my thesis, for his encouragement in my wish to follow the direction of Environmental Oceanography, for his trust, his subtle guidance and his support during the process of examining the data. Above all I would like to thank him for his prompt responsiveness to entrust me with the seismic data of a complex geologically area like the study area, giving me this way the opportunity to work with a plethora geological structures and environments. Warmly thank you. Maria Geraga, Associate professor and member of the thesis examining committee, for her guidance and assistance in the chapter of the paleogeographic evolution. Her support and advice eased significantly my acquaintance with the methodology of chronoseismostratigraphic and paleoenvirοnmental implications of the study area. Largely, though, I would like to sincerely thank her for her comforting and reassuring smile every time the dissertation needs led me to her office.

Dr.sc. Čedomir BENAC Igor RUŽIĆ, dipl.ing. Elvis ŽIC, dipl.ing. Građevinski fakultet Sveučilišta u Rijeci Zavod za hidrotehniku i geotehniku, Viktora Cara-Emina 5, 51000 Rijeka, Hrvatska Ranjivost obala u području Kvarnera Sažetak: Područje Kvarnera je poluzatvoreni dio Jadranskog mora, smješten između liburniijske obale na istočnom dijelu istarskog poluotoka i vinodolsko-velebitske obale. Otočni nizovi Cres-Lošinj i Krk-Rab-Pag dijele to područje na Riječki zaljev, Kvarnerski zaljev (Kvarner stricto), Kvarnerić i Vinodolsko-Velebitski kanal. U obalnom pojasu područja Kvarnera (akvatorij sjevernog Jadrana između istarske i vinodolske obale, odijeljen otočkim nizovima Cres-Lošinj i Krk-Rab-Pag) karbo- natne stijene prevladavaju, dok su siliciklastične stijene - fliš reducirane. Pleistocenski i holocenski sedimenti djelomično pokrivaju osnovne stijene. Sadašnji oblik stjenovitih karbonatnih obala prven- stveno je posljedica potopljenog krškog reljefa zbog rasta morske razine. U manje otpornim flišnim stijenama oblikovane su uvale i zaljevi, dok su zaravnjene obale djelomično zamočvarene. Valovima uzrokovana marinska erozija u području Kvarnera nije izražena na zaštićenim položajima. Zbog toga oblik obale prvenstveno ovisi o njenom litološkom sastavu. Prirodni šljunkovito-pjeskoviti žali čine mali dio ukupne duljine obale Kvarnera, no to su najatraktivnije, ali i najranjivije zone. U ovom radu su uspoređene Liburnijske i Vinodolske obale na kojima je jače izražen antropogeni utjecaj i deva- stacija obalnog okoliša pa tako i prirodnih žala. Također je uspoređeno stanje obalnog okoliša većih kvarnerskih otoka: Krka, Lošinja, Cresa i Raba.

    HRVATSKI PRIRODOSLOVNI MUZEJ 1. SKUPLJANJE GRAĐE 1.1. Kupnja Za popunu postojećih zbirki minerala i stijena u Muenchenu i Bologni kupljeni su slijedeći uzorci: 9726 Antimonit (Kina), 9725 Molibdenit (Kina), 9728 Beril-smaragd (Kolumbia), 9727 Cinabarit (Kina), 9730 Korund-rubin (Madagaskar), 9729 Disten-kijanit (Brazil) (V. Zebec, M. Šoufek). 1.2. Terensko istraživanje Terenska istraživanja obavljena su na području R Hrvatske u cilju prikupljanja prirodoslovne građe, i to geološko - paleontološke, mineraloško - petrografske, zoološke i botaničke građe. Geološko-paleontološka istraživanja - Lokalitet Brbišćica na Dugom otoku izuzetno je važno i bogato paleontološko nalazište, prvenstveno zbog nedavnog spektakularnog otkrića fosilnog gmaza. Naime, u naslagama gornjokredne starosti (cca 100 milijuna godina) pronađen je izuzetno dobro očuvan fosil gmaza, koji, sudeći po preliminarnim istraživanjima, ima veliku znanstvenu vrijednost kao najstariji takav fosil, a najvjerojatnije se radi i o posve novoj vrsti. Terenskim istraživanjem utvrđeno je da se fosilni gmaz nalazi u slijedu naslaga u kojemu je također sačuvana zajednica fosilnih riba, te morskih invertebrata kao što su glavonošci i grebenotvorci. Također je pronađeno i fosilno bilje, brojni ostaci algi, a u jednom sloju i ihnofosili, odnosno različiti tragovi aktivnosti životinja. Tako važan i rijedak fosilni ekosustav (u znanstvenoj literaturi takva se nalazišta nazivaju «fossil-lagerstätten») zahtijeva naročitu pozornost i brigu stručnjaka- specijalista, kako prilikom istraživanja, tako i u pogledu zaštite. U tom smislu već su poduzeti neki koraci, a ponuđena je i pomoć vrhunskih znanstvenika i preparatora iz inozemstva (Kanada), koji imaju bogatog iskustva sa sličnim nalazištima i fosilima iz svijeta. - Terensko istraživanje provedeno je u svrhu prospekcije nalazišta i pripreme prijedloga zaštite lokaliteta, a u suradnji s prof.

    ACTA BIOLOGICA SLOVENICA LJUBLJANA 2011 Vol. 54, [t. 1: 15–41 Diversity and ecology of epiphytic and terricolous lichen mycota in Gorski kotar and Kvarner littoral (Croatia) Raznolikost in ekologija epifitskih in talnih lišajskih gliv na območju Gorskega Kotarja in Kvarnerja (Hrvaška) Siniša Ozimec* University of J. J. Strossmayer in Osijek, Faculty of Agriculture, Trg Sv. Trojstva 3, HR-31000 Osijek, Croatia *correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: This paper lists a total of 264 taxa of lichenized and non-lichenized fungi recorded for Gorski kotar and Kvarner littoral; specifically, 184 for Gorski kotar and 170 for Kvarner littoral. Nine taxa are new to Croatia. The list is based on literature records and field work carried out in periods 2000–2002, and 2009–2010. Taxonomic analyses as well as ecological and phytogeographical analyses are presented. The eco- logical characterization of the lichen flora was determined by assessing the indicator values, and comparing them to values determined for adjacent areas in Slovenia and Italy. Due to particularities in relief and climate, percentage of lichens of oceanic/ suboceanic distribution is higher along the eastern Adriatic coast, in relation to the west Adriatic coast. Keywords: lichen, diversity, ecology, Gorski kotar, Kvarner, Croatia Izvleček: Prispevek navaja 264 taxonov z območja Gorskega kotarja in Kvarnerja; 184 z območja Gorskega kotarja in 170 z območja Kvarnerja. Devet taksonov je novih za Hrvaško. Seznam je narejen na podlagi literaturnih podatkv in terenskih raziskav v obdobjih 2000–2002 in 2009–2010. Podani so rezultati taksonomskih, ekoloških in fitogeografskih analiz. Ekološka karakterizacija lišajske flore temelji na oceni in- dikatorskih vrednosti ter primerjave z vrednostmi, določenimi na območju Slovenije in Italije.

Najsjeverniji je otok na Sredozemlju i najbliži europskom kontinentu. S kopnom je povezan Krčkim mostom ukupne dužine 1430 metara, izgrađenim 1980., koji se svojim impresivnim izgledom skladno uklopio u slikovit otočni pejzaž. Blizina i dostupnost te prelijepe povijesne priče i zanimljiva prošlost čine Krk čudesnim i tajno- vitim, jednim od najposjećenijih otoka u hrvat- skom dijelu Jadrana. Još je u antici nazvan zlatnim otokom – Insula Aurea, a zlatni su ovdje priroda, zalasci sunca, pješčane plaže, šume, kamenjar i krš, maslinovo ulje, vino i med. Otkrivati se ovaj prelijepi otok može u svim godišnjim dobima, mogu se upoznati njegova raznolika naselja koja skrivaju tisućljetne spo- menike kulture te muzeje i galerije, ili se njime može pješačiti romantičnim šetnicama uz more i divljim pastirskim stazama kamenjara s kojih se pruža veličanstven pogled na obližnje brežuljke i susjedne otoke Kvarnerskog zaljeva (Rab, Cres i Lošinj).
