Sažetak
The Jurassic succession of Gorski Kotar reveals typical sedimentary signature of inner Adriatic carbonate platform realm. Due to its facies characteristics, eleven informal lithofacies units can be distinguished. Their origin is grouped into three depositional settings that alternated over the spacious Adriatic platform area during the Jurassic. These are: (1) subtidal below the fair-weather wave-base to higher-energy subtidal above the fair-weather wave-base ; (2) subtidal below the fair-weather wave-base with episodic higher-energy influences ; (3) peritidal. The alteration of depositional settings reflects periods of intensive regional large-scale tectonic movements during the geodynamic evolution of the Western Neo-Tethys region, such as the opening/closing of the Dinaridic branch of the Neo-Tethys and opening of the Adriatic basin.
