The Morphogenesis of Submarine Springs in the Bay of Kastela, Croatia
F. Fritz
S. Bahun
Sažetak
Offshore, in the Bay of Kastela, karst groundwater, which initially flowed under a hanging karst barrier, flows out from two submarine springs. The water flows from fissures enlarged by corrosion and erosion at sites that were previously coastal karst springs. They were submerged due to sea level rise at least 7,000 years ago and, since that time, they function as submarine springs, at about 32-35 m below sea level.
