Sažetak
Numerous karst forms were generated on carbonate rocks which prevail on the Velebit Mt. Ridge. Here occur numerous varieties of karren (''grižine'' in Croatian), whose genesis and number is conditioned by interaction of geological, climatic, pedological, floristical and geomorphological characteristics, as well as by antropogenic influence. This term encompases various types of small-scale corrosional forms such as various types of karren, grikes, solution pans – kamenitzas (''kamenice'' in Croatian), root karren, karren wells, karst tables, pot-like karren, and the karren locally reffered to as ''sige'' (''tufa''). Several types of karren display differences as a consequence of their genesis; directly under the atmospheric water, subcutal corrosion or the water which was secondary enriched by soil-derived biogenic CO2.
