Original Abstract

Satellite images revealed an extensive deformation on the southern slopes of the Nízké Tatry Mts. Range. This deformation can be ascribed to group of gravity nappes. Geologic survey, however, neither confirmed nor negated its existence. Therefore a detailed analysis of DEM and aerial images was carried out on the scale 1:35 000. Analytical interpretation led to the construction of a special morphotectonic and geodynamic scheme of the area, supported by the various geophysical data. The purpose of contemporary studies on the southern and south-western slopes of Nízke Tatry Mts. and marginal parts of the Velká Fatra Mts. were to verify the important tectonic boundaries and deformation structures interpreted on satellite images by the geophysical, geomorphological and GPS data.
