Sažetak
Twelve lilhostratigraphic units, representing a 5 km thick succession, have been determined from the Senj-Ogulin profile through the Velika Kapela Mt. This 45 km long sequence lies approximately normal to the Dinaric strike. Carbonate deposits ranging from the Middle Liassic to the Albian include laterally variable environments during the Kimmeridgian and Lower Tithonian. The deposits were deformed by compressive tectonics during the Tertiary tectonic cycle, and were consequently reshaped by weaker Neotectonic transpression. Therefore structures with the N-S strike, which are different to the common Dinaric strike (NW-SE), are interpretcd as a consequence of syngenetic bending during the Tertiary cycle, rather than rotation during the Neotectonic cycle.
