Karst sediments. tools for the reconstruction of tectonic and geomorphic evolution of karst regions (exemplified on karst territories of Slovenia)

Principal aim of the project is to find more precise tools for the reconstruction and dating of Cenozoic tectonic processes (movements, rotations) and infilling processes in caves in tectonically mobile settings like as Slovenia. The application of broad variety of geochronologic methods (magnetostratigraphy, magnetosusceptibility stratigraphy, standard paleontology and biostratigraphy, stable isotopes, isotopic dating methods) can therefore represent a tool for the reconstruction of Cenozoic history in respektive karst region.
