Abstract:

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of landslide remediation in the Polish Carpathians. The research for safeguarding the roads and infrastructure was conducted in the years 2005–2018 in nine landslide areas. The interpretation of engineering geology conditions was complex due to the soil-rock nature of the flysch sediment. Movements were activated after heavy rainfalls. In two cases, triggers were connected with the undercutting of the slope or external loading. The research methods included mapping, drilling, index, oedometer, direct shear tests, ground-penetrating rad

Abstract:

The stability of rock slopes is often guided significantly by the structural geology of the rocks composing the slope. In this work, we analysed the influences of structural characteristics, and of their seismic responses, on large and deep-seated rock slope failure development. The study was focused on the Tamins and Fernpass rockslides in the European Alps and on the Balta and Eagle’s Lake rockslides in the southeastern Carpathians. These case studies were compared with catastrophic rock slope failures with ascertained or very likely seismic origin in the Tien Shan Mountains. The main goals

Abstract:

The prediction and calculation of the volume of gravel and/or sand transported down streams and rivers—called bed-load transport is one of the most difficult things for river engineers and designers because, in addition to field measurements, personnel involved in such activities need to be highly experienced. Bed-load transport treated by many engineers marginally or omitted and often receives only minor consideration from engineers or may be entirely disregarded simply because they do not know how to address the issue—in many cases, this is a fundamental problem in river management tasks suc

The concept of “Western Ukraine” is not entirely a static one. As a valid unit of historical analysis it first appears in the late eighteenth century, when the Habsburg monarchy added Galicia (1772) and Bukovina (occupied 1774, annexed 1787) to its collection of territories; already part of the collection was the Ukrainian-inhabited region of Transcarpathia (depending on how one counts, it had been Habsburg since as early as 1526 or as late as the early eighteenth century). Of course, one can also read back certain features unifying Western Ukraine prior to the 1770s, such as the culturally fo

The usage of landscape analysis in recent years is increasing systematically due to the constant improvement of the digital elevation models and GIS software that significantly facilitate this approach.

Abstract:

Miocene vegetation pattern and climate change in the northwestern Central Paratethys domain (Czech and Slovak Republic)The case study area covers the slopes of the tectonically quiet European platform and foreland of the tectonically active Carpathian mountain chain (Carpathian Foredeep and Vienna Basin). Therefore the research on pollen spectra mirrors not only the evolution of landscape in two areas with different geodynamics, but also climatic changes in the Central Paratethys domain during the studied time interval. According to the pollen data, the Early to Middle Miocene vegetation refle

Quaternary exhumation of the Carpathians: a record from the Orava-Nowy Targ Intramontane Basin, Western Carpathians (Poland and Slovakia)The Neogene-Quaternary infill of the Orava-Nowy Targ Intramontane Basin comprises two tiers showing contrasting lithologies. The Neogene tier is largely composed of claystones and siltstones, whereas the Quaternary tier is dominated by gravels. The two sequences are separated by an erosional surface underlain by a regolith. Deposition of the Neogene sequence took place during subsidence of the basin. No prominent relief existed in the area of the present-day

Oscillatory zoned zircons revealed concordant Mississippian magmatic ages: 355±5 Ma in Bratislava granodiorite, and 347±4 Ma in Modra tonalite. The results document nearly synchronous, successive Meso-Hercynian plutonic events from S-type to I-type granites

Ambient radioactivity originates mainly from natural sources and materials (rocks and soils, building and other man-made materials, and cosmic radiation), and less frequently from artificial radionuclides. A geoscientific comparative study of the geological structure of the Alpine-Carpathian and Himalayan mountain range systems primarily focused on the area of structure geology, tectonics, stratigraphy and petrology in connection with the in-situ sampling of magnetic susceptibility and radioactivity at rock outcrops was also utilized to perform continual monitoring and acquisition of the equiv

AbstractThe Skorušinské vrchy mountains are part of the West Carpathians in northwest Slovakia near the Polish border. They consist of four Palaeogene sedimentary complexes and comprise a 1500 to 2000 m thick sequence of conglomerates, claystones, flyschoid rocks and sandstones. The older complexes erop out on the margins of the mountains and are covered by relatively thin clayey soils. The central part, the most highly uplifted block, consists of Eocene calcareous sandstone which are disturbed by joints and deep-seated faults.

Thermal evolution of the Malá Fatra Mountains (Central Western Carpathians): insights from zircon and apatite fission track thermochronologyWe apply zircon and apatite fission track thermochronology (ZFT and AFT, respectively) to the Variscan crystal-line basement of the Malá Fatra Mts (Central Western Carpathians) in order to constrain the thermal history. The samples yielded three Early Cretaceous ZFT ages (143.7±9.6, 143.7±8.3, 135.3±6.9 Ma) and one Eocene age (45.2±2.1 Ma), proving that the basement was affected by a very low-grade Alpine metamorphic overprint.

The specimen represents a partly articulated portion of the postcranial skeleton (nine dorsal vertebrae, coracoid, ribs, gastral ribs, pelvic girdle, femur and one zeugopodial element). It is assigned to the Pachypleurosauria, more precisely to theSerpianosaurus–Neusticosaurusclade based on the following combination of features:

The increase of metamorphic temperatures towards the SW detected by the zircon fission track data suggests SW-wards increasing tectonic overburden (up to at least 15 km) and hence top
