Stability conditions in a wider surrounding of the rock castle Drábské Světničky (Drábské Rooms) near the town of Mnichovo Hradiště were investigated. The area which has been intensively disturbed by large old as well as present slope movements is located in the north-western part of Příhrazy Platform. Solid, thick bedded sandstones, well resistant to weathering, are lying on claystones apt to plastic deformations. Marginal sandstone blocks separate, move down on the slope and sink into the plastic bedrock. As a result, block fields with many crevasses develop. In rock walls that separate individual blocks, rockfalls originate and central, as well as lower parts of the slopes develop large landslides. A zone comprising up to 400 m wide rim of the high and exposed platform has been subject to a process of loosening. A local group of tower-like sandstone blocks was used in the 15th century to build a small rock castle called Drábské Světničky. An extensive landslide that destroyed a substantial part of the village of Dneboh in June 1926, reached in its separating zone up to the toe of marginal rock towers belonging to the complex of Drábské Sv ě tni č ky with the result of local movement activation. Marginal zones of the flat land behind display fresh linear, as well as oval depressions and sinks. Fissure and pseudocarst caves develop. Present activity of the movements has been evidenced by dilatometric measurements on two selected rock objects where movement rates reached 1 to 2 mm per year in average., Jan Rybář, Josef Stemberk and Filip Hartvich., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy
The results obtained by four years long TM 71 extensometer monitoring of 3D micro-tectonic displacements of Dinaric Fault Zone on two sites, being 260 m apart in Postojna Cave, were statistically evaluated with different methods (Kolmogorov- Smirnov test, comparison between relative displacement and earthquakes, linear regression, Kruskal-Wallis one-way analysis of variance, histograms and correlation coefficients). Responses to stress changes regarding x, y and z-axes are not the same on two monitoring sites even if we are monitoring the same fault zone. Kolmogorov-Smirnov test for comparing the two curves is applicable only for three axes combination (Postojna 1 z - Postojna 2 z, Postojna 2 y - Postojna 1 z, and Postojna 2 z - Postojna 2 y). Kruskal-Wallis analysis is most representative for z-axes. Some sharp peaks coincide with earthquake occurrences (Krn M=5.2, Cerkno M=4.0, Ilirska Bistrica M=3.9, Brežice M=2.9 and Krško M=3.1). Generally we detect very small tectonic deformations, dextral horizontal movement of 0.05 mm in 4 years for Postojna 1 and extension of 0.03 mm in 4 years for Postojna 2. Discrepancies between two sites can be attributed to complex geological structure and by the fact that studied fault zone is cut by cross-Dinaric fault zone., Stanka Šebela, Janez Turk, Janez Mulec, Blahoslav Košťák and Josef Stemberk., and Obsahuje bibliografii
