Sažetak
A high-resolution infrared stimulated luminescence (IRSL) dating and radiocarbon dating study was performed on the loess-paleosol sequence from the island of Susak, situated in the North Adriatic Sea in Croatia. The dating results show that a detailed Late Pleistocene record is preserved on Susak, correlating to the Oxygen Isotope Stages (OIS) 5 to 2, with a very thick Middle Pleniglacial record predominating. Due to its extraordinary thickness (which is recorded to be up to 90 metres), the loess on Susak is unique in this area. The numerous paleosols intercalated in the loess give evidence for climate variations which were warmer than in other loess regions (e.g. the Carpathian Basin). The great thickness of the OIS3 deposits correlates to the general increased dust accumulation in Europe during that time. Based on numerical ages a correlation of the loess on Susak with the loess in North Italy and the Carpathian basin a more detailed time-based reconstruction of climate and environment changes in the study area was achieved.
