Cave microclimate of Northern Velebit (Croatia)

The aim of this study is cave microclimate research in the caves of Northern Velebit area in Croatia. Velebit Mt. is known by many vertical and deep caves on relatively small area. Their complex properties influence on the cave microclimate. The aim of the study is to establish dependence of cave microclimate parameters on the geomorphological, speleomorphological, hydrogeological and physical properties. A special interest of the research is perennial ice & snow and the influence of climate change on ice and snow deposits. The study is mainly focused on Ice pit in Lomska duliba (Ledena jama u Lomskoj dulibi) (1235 m a.s.l.) and Patuljak cave in Rožanski kukovi area (1582 m a.s.l.).
