Contemporary knowledge
about the structure and tectonics of the Outer/Inner West Carpathian contact
zone is from the geologic mapping, results of the deep boreholes and realized
complex geophysical measurements. Especially the latest reflection seismic
profiles (2-D), magnetotelluric measurements, with the results of seismological
analyses, have offered many significant data enabling one to compile a
complex lithospheric model of one of the most complicated structural
zones
in the West Carpathians.
On several cross
-
sections
character
of the flysh units (Magura, Obidova-Slopnic, Silesian, Klippen belt) and
their platform basement is documented and interpreted. The styles of structure
of the Inner West Carpathian units (tatrikum, fatrikum) can be distinguished.
The accessible geophysical and remote-sensing data were used for verification
and analyses of geological models (different authors) for the first time.
