A study of several karst phenomena in Croatia

Our investigation of karst phenomena were focused on the travertine deposits of the Plitvice Lakes and Krka river regions. We have investigated (i) the process of calcite precipitation from freshwater in form of travertine, (ii) geochronology of travertine deposits vs. palaeoclimatic conditions, (iii) groundwater residence time in karst, and (iv) the anthropogenic influence on the natural karst environment.
