3.1.6. Specific targets for the Alps/Carpathians–Pannonian Basin System

  • To better constrain ongoing movements of the Adriatic indenter in order to resolve contrasting elevations between the Alps/Carpathians/Dinarides and the lowlands of the neotectonically active Pannonian Basin System
  • To define a reference geomorphological framework in order to identify where additional age dates are required
  • To increase where possible the absolute ages database in key sectors of the Pannonian-Carpathian system
  • To better discriminate between tectonic and glacial controls on uplift and subsidence
  • To involve the Dinarides countries (Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, Bulgaria etc) to improve the understanding of deformation transfer from the Dinarides towards the Carpathians
  • To implement a European consortium for the Carpathian Basins Seismological Project and expand it in key areas
  • To define potential key areas for drilling under the ICDP programm
