Determination of the recent structural fabric in the Alps-Dinarides area by combination of geodetic and geologic methods

In this paper, we investigate the correlation between the results of geodetic measurements within the research geodynamic GPS-network CRODYN and the geological data about recent geological structures in the area of Eastern Adriatic. Comparison of movements of surfaca geological structures and geodetic measurements yielded strong correlation between the two independent methods. Hence, combined recent structure of the area was obtained. We used the data about the geoid and total vertical deflections in this research, too. These data enabled the in-depth resolution of earth masses with higher density, as well as the movements of the masses which are correlated with geologic structures. The quatitative and independent geodetic data represent immense contribution to the complete assessment of recent geological structural dynamics in the Alps-Dinarides area.
