Original Abstract

The region of Central Europe, Adriatic region and Balkan Peninsula were subjects of geo-kinematical monitoring in several projects performed since 1992. Independent GPS epoch-wise observing campaigns took place in several regions and the whole territory is now covered by tens of permanent stations. The long-term observational series from permanent stations generally yield reliable site velocities, however distribution of such stations is not dense enough to provide velocity field with sufficient resolution all over the monitored region. On the other side the epoch-wise campaigns sites are much denser than the permanent ones, however the repeated epoch observations are not very frequent and their referencing is not unique. In the paper we shortly describe velocity fields available from various national and regional GPS geo-kinematics projects and an attempt to analyzed and interpret the homogenized the velocity fields in relationship to pozition of the important tectonic zones located in the Central Europe. Two examples of the complex geodetic and geological-geophysical interpretation from the Bohemian Massif and the Western Carpathians offer next possible explanation and solution for tectonic zones where the geo-kinematics is mostly variable and complicated.
