Croatian Geological Survey
2004-2022

In this paper, for the first time, a regional-scale 1:100,000 landslide-susceptibility map (LSM) is presented Sisak-Moslavina County in Croatia. The spatial relationship between landslide occurrence and predictive factors (engineering geological units, relief, roughness, distance to streams) assessed using integration of statistically based frequency ratio (FR) into analytical hierarchy process (AHP). Due lack inventory county, LiDAR-based inventories are completed an area 132 km2. From 1238...

The most recent major earthquake series struck near Petrinja (December 29th 2020 M 6.2), and triggered extensive ground failures in the wider area of Petrinja, Sisak Glina. Coseismic including subsidence dolines, liquefaction landslides have been documented over a large by various experts teams. These data are stored newly created inventory, which is openly presented this paper. This inventory administered updated Croatian Geological Survey, will be available online via Web Map Service (WMS)...

The south-western part of Croatia, i.e. the area central Istria (the research area, approximately 500 km2) is characterized by flysch complex with a great number isolated relief landforms – badlands. importance badlands (areas sparse or no vegetation) in fact that sediment production from these areas 8000 higher than vegetation. In this paper badland inventory for presented 5568 (polygons) singled out total 10.7 km2. Spatial analysis showed concentrated erosive channel flow at steep slope...

The determination and estimation of elastic behaviour are essential in engineering practise, especially quarrying, mining, construction, all professions that perform operations dealing with rock materials. Young’s modulus, or modulus elasticity, is the most important property describing deformability material. In this paper, grain-supported carbonates from Croatia described their significant physical mechanical properties determined. analysis collected data was performed R statistical...

This paper presents the preliminary results of analyses landsliding processes derived from detailed LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) scans supported by field prospection on south-western slopes Mt. Moslavačka gora, in wider Kutina area. area is known for frequent landslides, but dedicated regional landslide research has not been previously undertaken. High resolution scanning orthophoto imaging enabled production a reliable inventory, also properties morphology Field mapping prospection,...

Abstract The objective of this research was to prepare a rockfall susceptibility map. Explorations were conducted in the Dubračina River basin (Croatia). input data included geological map, an orthophoto and 1-m digital terrain model (DTM). After talus inventory prepared, seed cell concept applied define source areas. contributing factors (predictors) rockfalls evaluated by chi-squared test. analysis confirmed following predictors: CORINE land cover, lithology, slope, aspect, distance from...
