Application of isotope in investigation of Dinaric Karst, Croatia

Short introduction of the Zagreb Radiocarbon Laboratory with presentation of investigations in different scientific fields will be given. Isotope methods (14C, 13C, 3H, 2H, 18O, 230Th/234U) have been used in investigations of the Karst area in Croatia (Dinaric Karst covers more then 50% of all country). Results of dating of calcareous deposits (tufa, speleothems, lake sediments) applied in palaeoclimatic study, karst environmental study including anthropogenic influence, carbon exchange processes (atmospheric CO2→ soil CO2 → DIC in water → carbonates) and some application in the sea-level change study will be presented.
