GENERAL :
This
classic closed polje exhibits all the usual karst geomorphological features
such as ponors, springs, estavelles, caves, vertical shafts etc. All such
features are dealt with individually in great detail elsewhere in the Fatničko
Polje webpages. Section 17. is dedicated more to illustrating the
exokarst of the polje.
16.2.
EXOKARST :
The
polje exhibits many of the expected exokarst, or exposed karst features.
These are mainly confined to areas of the Lower Polje and include natural
arches, limestone pavements and a diverse range of karrenforms, as are
illustrated in the images below.
