Perspectives of solid state research in the environmental and geological studies in Croatian karst

We discuss application and perspectives of different methods in solid state research in the environmental and geological studies of speleothems and another cave sediments. The Croatian karst is mostly part of Dinaric karst, largest continuous karst landscape in Europe with many natural phenomena. It is specific in a way that at a relatively small area there are different climatic, geological, geomorphological and pedological zones and processes influencing speleogenesis, speleothem growth and composition. The differences analysis in the properties of speleothems between the sites therefore may be methods that detect proxy suitable for studying paleoclimatic and other environmental processes.
