Quaternary tectonic and depositional evolution of eastern Srem (northwest Serbia)
The area of eastern Srem is situated in the southern periphery of the Pannonian basin. Its depositional evolution during the Neogene and the Quaternary has been controlled by tectonic processes. Miocene extensional subsidence was followed by the Pliocene-Quaternary inversion of the basin....

description | The area of eastern Srem is situated in the southern periphery of the
Pannonian basin. Its depositional evolution during the Neogene and the
Quaternary has been controlled by tectonic processes. Miocene extensional
subsidence was followed by the Pliocene-Quaternary inversion of the basin.
The latter was accomplished as the result of replacement of the tensile by
the compressive stress field. Since the Late Neogene, the regional tectonic
activity has been controlled by compressive stress produced by the
northnortheastern propagation of the Adria microplate. In the compressive
NE-SW-oriented stress field, the recent structural plan of the Pannonian
basin and its wider environment, including its southern periphery, was
reactivated. The youngest tectonic deformations are characterized by positive
and negative vertical motions of large intrabasinal segments and basinal
periphery, resulting in the final inversion of the basin. The effects of the
basinal inversion can be recognized in genetic features of Quaternary
sediments and geomorphological characteristics of the relief. Sources of data
used for the interpretation of the Quaternary tectonic activity in the area
of eastern Srem are of geological, geomorphological, thermochronological, and
geophysical character. The positions of prominent fault structures have been
ascertained by remote sensing, interpretations of available geophysical
cross-sections, and using the field data. [Projekat Ministarstva nauke
