The Chugach-Prince William (CPW) terrane is an Upper Cretaceous to Eocene accretionary complex exposed for ~2200 km in southern Alaska, extending from Baranof Island in the east to Sanak Island in the west. One of the thickest subduction-related accretionary complexes in the world, the CPW terrane is composed of deep-water flysch and associated volcanic rocks and is intruded by near-trench plut...

We investigated the kinematics of coupled Helminthoid Flysch–Marguareis Unit outcropping in High Tanaro Valley order to constraint tectonic evolution Western Ligurian Alps. Field mapping highlights a pile composed of, from top bottom: Marguareis (Briançonnais Domain); Flysch (Ligurian Domain) and several continental-derived slices (Chambeuil Slices) showing affinity Briançonnais Domain. Each un...

The Grajcarek Unit of the Pieniny Klippen Belt (PKB), at boundary between Central (Inner) and Outer Carpathians, resulted from convergence ALCAPA (the Alps–Carpathians–Pannonia) block European plate. strongly deformed slices consist Jurassic–Cretaceous sedimentary rocks associated with Late Cretaceous–Middle Palaeocene synorogenic wild-flysch, breccias olistoliths. Maximum burial temperatures d...

Badlands are specific landforms characterized by intense denudation processes. Their occurrence is mainly associated with clay-like materials and semi-arid Mediterranean climates. This study presents the badland inventory for Paleogene Pazin Basin located on Istrian peninsula in Croatia. A total of 5,381 polygons, a area 10.25 km2, were manually outlined, based visual interpretation orthophotos...

Flysch materials are one of the most challenging geological and often give rise to slope instability problems. Due its natural heterogeneity, geomechanical characterization flysch is somewhat difficult. The Spanish Basque Arc Alpine region a very well-known location for materials. In this paper, an area approximately 100 km2 in intensively studied their geomechanically characterized. A total 33...

The investigation of the fractionation of S compounds in forest soils is a powerful tool for interpreting S dynamics and S biogeochemistry in forest ecosystems. Beech stands on high pH (nutrient-rich) sites on Flysch and on low pH (nutrient-poor) sites on Molasse were selected for testing the influence of stemflow, which represents a high input of water and dissolved elements to the soil, on sp...

A chub of previously ambiguous identity from the Boljunscica and Pazincica rivers (south-eastern Istra Peninsula) was studied and compared with geographically close Squalius squalus, Squalius zrmanja, and Squalius janae recently described from the Dragonja River drainage in the Adriatic Sea basin in Slovenia. It was shown that the chub from the south-eastern Istra Peninsula differs from all kno...
