Abstract

Područje Južnog Velebita ima složeni geomorfološki razvoj, a njegovo
oblikovanje bilo je i pod utjecajem pleistocenske glacijacije. Cilj ovog
rada je detaljnije istražiti geomorfološke tragove pleistocenske oledbe na
tom području. Primijenjene su metode opće i specifične morfometrijske
analize u GIS-u te metoda geomorfološkog kartiranja. Zabilježeni su
značajniji egzaracijski (cirkovi, ledenjačke doline) i akumulacijski
oblici te je analiziran njihov prostorni raspored i odnos s ostalim
elementima reljefa. Na temelju geomorfoloških tragova pretpostavljen je
položaj i obuhvat četiri ledenjaka, od kojih je najdulji Ribnički, duljine
10,5 km. Ostale tri pretpostavljene ledenjačke doline nalaze se na
sjevernoj padini. Obuhvat leda u maksimumu glacijacije pretpostavljen je
na površini od 41,6 km2
. S obzirom na karbonatnu građu ovo područje je i
znatno okršeno pa prevladava glaciokrš. Kopnjenjem leda morenski materijal
je erodiran i pretaložen u obliku fluvioglacijalnih plavina na
sjevernoj i južnoj strani istraživanog područja

Abstract (english)

The Southern Velebit area has a complex geomorphological formation and it was
reshaped under Pleistocene glaciation. The aim of this thesis is to investigate geomorphological
traces of Pleistocen glaciation on this area. The main methods used in this research were general
and specific morphometric analys method in GIS and method of geomorphological mapping. It
was found that they are significant egzaration (cirques, glacial valleys) and accumulation forms,
so their spatial arrangement and relations with other elements of relief were analyzed. In fact
of geomorphological traces, the position and area of four glaciers was assumed. The longest
glacier was Ribnički glacier with the lenght of 10,5 km. The other three glacial valleys are
located on the northern side of the Southern Velebit. The ice coverage during the glacial
maximum has been assumed with area of 41,6 km2
. The researched area is primarily made of
carbonated stones that were reshaped by ice; hence the development of glaciokarst. By ice
melting, morane material has been erroded and accumulated in the fluvioglacial fan form on
the northern and southern side of researhed area.
