Sažetak
Geomorphologic researches have shown that the Pleistocene glaciation spread over a large part of the northern, central and southern Velebit. In that process, various types of glaciers were differentiated, and surface morphologic (denudation and accumulation) proofs of their expansion were found. As we are talking about a karst area, this work analyses the possibility that the glaciation proofs are also deposited in the underground, i. e. in some speleological features. Two examples are given: the pit “ Ledena jama u Lomskoj dulibi” (northern Velebit) and the cave “ Snježnica u Štirovači” (central Velebit). Their position has been analysed in relation to the proved expansion of glaciers, as well as their interior morphology and the possibility of glacial and fluvioglacial origin of clastic sediments in the mentioned speleological features.
