Sažetak
After the discovery in 1985, Modrič Cave (near Starigrad, Croatia) came into the focus of different scientific disciplines, with researches undertaken by several institutions and individuals. Upon the initial topographic (1985) and palaeontological studies (1987), thorough speleological and geological survey and partial geochemical and hydrogeological (1999) investigations were conducted. As the cave has been open for the adventure tourism since 2004, radon activity in the cave air was also monitored, along with cave microclimatic settings (2009-2011), and the basic karstological settings related to deposition and dissolution within the surface-to-cave system (2012-2013). For the purpose of palaeoclimate reconstruction, speleothem and cave water stable isotope analyses were conducted within several campaigns (2003-2011, 2008-2010, 2014-2018). The latter, as the most comprehensive one, aimed at the overall reconstruction of palaeonvironment and supported by monitoring of recent surface and cave air and water parameters is a part of the project Reconstruction of the Quaternary environment in Croatia using isotope methods - REQUENCRIM (HRZZ-IP-2013-11-1623) financed by the Croatian Science Foundation.
