Sažetak
The Dinarides, southwest vergent foreland fold and thrust belt, located on the convergent boundary separating the Adriatic and Tisza-Dacia microplates, are composed of several geotectonic units. The External (Karst) Dinarides, exposed along the eastern Adriatic coast, are composed of a thick section of Late Paleozoic to Eocene shallow- to deep-water carbonates and clastics. Their complex internal structure and complex relationship with adjacent regions/units (like undeformed Adria) still are waiting to be completely understood. The systematic paleomagnetic investigations coupled with biostratigraphical studies conducted for the last 25 years (Márton et al., 2003 ; 2008 ; 2010a, b ; 2014 ; Márton & Moro, 2009) resulted in data which bring more light on their geodynamic evolution. Investigations have been conducted on the Jurassic, Cretaceous, and Eocene sediments from the north-west part (Istria), Gorski kotar region, Velebit Mt. ; several North Adriatic islands ; and further to the south to the Central Dalmatian islands. Some of the conclusions are: 1) close coordination from the late Albian onward for the Adriatic islands, although some tectonic models place investigated islands within different tectonic units ; 2) coeval paleomagnetic directions for the Adriatic islands and for “autochthonous“ Adria are co-incident from the late Albian onward ; and 3) the Northern Adriatic mainland rotated about 30° CW with respect to Adria (the timing of the rotation is not yet solved).
