During 2007 and 2008 there were realized gravity measurements using the relative gravimeter Scintrex CG-5 on sites of geodynamic networks HIGHLANDS and fundamental gravity sites of the Czech Gravity Reference Network. The gravity measurements were concentrated on monitoring the long-term trends of gravity acceleration changes among individual measurement sites. The methodology of measurement was optimized and preliminary time changes in gravity differences among sites were determined., Roman Kujal, Vladimír Schenk and Zdeňka Schenková., and Obsahuje bibliografii
Two geodynamic test transects across the Polish segment of the Western Carpathians, crossing the Orava Basin in the west (KO) and the Pieniny Klippen Belt and Magura Nappe along the Dunajec River valley in the east (DD), are presented. Multidisciplinary studies conducted along these transects incl uded gravimetric, geodetic, geologic and morphostructural investigations. Gravimetric and geodetic results appear to suggest recent subsidence of the Orava Basin, particularly intensive in the Wróblówka Graben, confirming conclusions derived from geomorphic analyses. Data ob tained for the Dunajec River transect do not show any particular differentiation among individual benchmarks, what can point to either minor uplift of the entire area (already suggested by the results of geomorphic and morphotectonic studies), minimal differences between successive slices of the Magura Nappe and the Pieniny Klippe n Belt, or both. Horizontal displacements of benchmarks, different for the KO and DD transects, towa rds the west and SW as well east and SE, respectively, can result from general uplift of the area comprised between these transects, i.e. the Gorce Mts., Monika Łój, Janusz Madej, Sławomir Porzucek and Witold Zuchiewicz., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy
Geodynamic processes take place in the Carpathians even nowadays. For tracing them, a research project employing gravity measurements was undertaken. Movements in the crust result in a change of mass distribution, which may be traced with the use of a gravimetric method. Two measurement profiles were designed for tracing geodynamic changes, and in the years 2004-2005 gravimetric measurements were realised. The first results of observed gravity changes are presented in the paper and are followed by preliminary conclusions on the observed changes and the assumed measurement methods., Sławomir Porzucek, Janusz Madej and Monika Łój., and Obsahuje bibliografii
