Seismicity of well localized events and the corresponding focal mechanisms (see Fig. 9) projected onto the central Velebit cross-section (Fig. 8) within a corridor of ± 20 km. The deeper seismic events cluster around the frontal tip of the Velebit–Lika–Plitvice triangle zone and the internal Pre-Karst High karst nappe contact. Shallow seismicity is recorded underneath the Lika Plateau and correlates with the modelled depth of the passive roof thrust. The focal mechanism solutions (FMS) are projected into the section plane; the colours correspond to the focal mechanisms in map view (Fig. 9). The FMS show that the frontal part of the section is mainly related to strike-slip faulting, whereas the internal part of the section is related to thrust faulting
