Understanding geodynamics of the long-lasting Adria-Europe convergence: new constraints from the central balkans

Abstract

The Central Balkan region offers particular insights into the very last episodes of the life of oceanic domains that existed between Adria and Europe. This special issue highlights some of the latest developments in the geological research of this important area with a rather small but eclectic selection of papers aimed at better understanding of the geodynamics of the long-lasting Adria - Europe convergence. The road ahead involves more detailed investigations and key studies, including sedimentology, geochronology, provenance and microtectonics, to further enhance our knowledge about the issues that are opened or discussed in this volume.
