In the flysch zone of the eastern part of Western Carpathians on the Slovak territory 140wells of mineral waters have been registered. Regionalisation is very difficult, in the view of the variability of particular geochemical properties of waters

Several types of contact karst are found within the Slovenian karst, but the most common is the ponor type, which usually develops at boundaries between flysch and limestone. One of these types is in the area of Vrhpoljska brda. In this contact
karst area two types of alluvial fans appear on carbonate bedrock. Members of the first type are ordinary alluvial fans with active alluvial processes where flysch derived sediment covered limestone surface in a distinct fan shape. - (L'A.).

This paper presents the basics of lichenometry as well as its applications in geomorphological research. Also presented are results of lichenometric dating of landslide-rockfall walls in the western part of the Polish Flysch Carpathians. The study
This study identifies factors that affect the speed of rockwall retreat of flysch cliffs between Kane Point and Strunjan on the Slovenian coast. Individual factors were combined in a geographical information system with mapped recent erosion
features. The results indicate the influence of individual factors on the formation of erosion rills, gullies, surfwave breaks, slumps, and rockfalls; that is, flysch coast retreat processes. The article also presents the threat due to rockfalls and slumps
This article presents the main types of mass movements in the highly anisotropic flysch massifs : lateral spreading and rock flow, topple, translational, rotational and compound sliding and complex type of mass movements, which are illustrated
by chosen forms described using structural analysis (joints, faults and other structural planes orientation). Purely rotational movements with circular failure have developed in the flysch where thick-bedded, hard sandstones are underlain by plastic shales.
Evidence of sedimentary supply from plutonic sources in the Oligocene-Miocene flyschs of the Rifian Chain (Morocco) : provenance and palaeogeographic implications
New petrographic and sedimentological data from the Oligocene-Miocene mauretanien flysch of the Rifian Chain and from the terrigenous deposits unconformably overlying the internal Rifian zones provide evidence of sedimentary supplies also from
plutonic and high rank metamorphic sources. This provenance is supported by the occurence of well rounded plutonic and high rank metamorphic pebbles within some conglomerate lithofacies of the Beni Ider Flysch, never found so far. Petrography
Flysch part of Istrian peninsula is due to its looks called »Grey Istria«. High erodibility of flysch rocks and soils results in intensive erosion processes. The research of these processes in the last decades in the Croatian part of Grey Istria

Landslide processes have the greatest impacts in shaping the landscape on the slopes of the flysch Carpathians (Starkel, 1960). Under the current climatic conditions and means of utilising the slopes, it is shallow landslide movements
that are the most often initiated. This article attempts to assess the signiifcance in the shaping of flysch slopes of shallow landslide movements activated during extreme weather events. The role in question is presented by reference to the examples of the Lososina

deposits pertaining respectively to the Trapanese and the Sicanian successions, and a thick Oligo-Miocene numidian flysch body, crop out. A structural analysis reveals complex tectonic relationships between the Trapanese carbonate platform tectonic unit
(the Rocca Busambra carbonate ridge) and the overthrusting Sicanian deepwater carbonate (Corleone-Barracù) and numidian flysch tectonic units, outcropping around the carbonate ridge. - (NF)
Several types of contact karst are found within the Slovenian karst, but the most common is the ponor type, which appears between flysch and limestone. The most extensive contact of this type is in western Slovenia, in the area of Matarsko podolje
, where a variety of typical contact karst depression features can be found. Relict alluvial fans on contact karst are the result of the gradual denudation of alluvial cover from flysch and chemical denudation of carbonate bedrocks in the area of alluvial
