Climate and relief influence on the carbonate surface corrosion intensity int he Velika Kapela mountain group

Abstract

Istraživanje intenziteta površinske korozije u području gorske skupine Velike Kapele provedeno je metodom ¨standardnih vapnenačkih tableta¨. Kako spomenuta metoda ukazuje na zavisnost korozije i klimatskih elemenata izračunati su vertikalni gradijenti padalina za privjetrinske i zavjetrinske klimatološke stanice, te temperaturni vertikalni gradijenti u istraživanom prostoru. Eksponencijalnom korelacijskom analizom određena je međuzavisnost intenziteta korozije, kako gole vapnenačke površine, tako i subkutane korozije sa nadmorskom visinom, odnosno količinom prosječnih godišnjih padalina i temperaturom zraka.The research of surface corrosion in the area of Velika Kapela mountain group was performed by the method of standard limestone tablets. Since this method points at interdependence between corrosion and climatic elements, the perticipation vertical gradient for the windward and leeward located meteorological stations and temperature vertical gradient in the research area were calculated. Using the exponential correlation analysis, the interdependence between the corrosion intensity (on bare limestone surface and subcutaneous corrosion) and altitude, respectively the annual precipitation and temperatures was determined
