Abstract
Although the Velebit is a low mountain situated in the moderate climate zone, there exist periglacial processes in relief modelling in its highest part. The reason for this is interdependance of geological, geomorphological, climatic, vegetational and pedological influences, but also long antropogenic and zoogenic influences. Among periglacial forms the features which originated from the activity of nival and frost processes can be singled out.

To se može reći i za litosol na nižim dijelovima JZ padine koji je naknadno otkriven spiranjem i eolskim procesom na mjestima gdje je uništen vegetacijski pokrov
Due to the ice contractions along the fissure there is breaking of the stone complex the extracted parts of which and the influence of gravitation are being accumulated at the footslopes, at the bottom of sinkholes, hollows and uvalas of karst poljas, in the shape of talus cones, colluvial cones and colluvial fans

Iako je Velebit niska planina koja se nalazi u umjerenom klimatskom pojasu, u njegovom vršnom dijelu javljaju se periglacijalni procesi u oblikovanju reljefa. Ključne riječi: Velebit, periglacijalni reljef, snježno oblikovanje, mrazni procesi i oblici. The Velebit is a low mountain situated in the moderate climate zone, there exist periglacial processes in relief modelling in its highest part. The reason for this is interdependance of geological, geomorphological, climatic, vegetational and pedological influences, and long antropogenic and zoogenic influences. U vršnim dijelovima Velebita (iznad 1400 m) osim krških i padinskih recentnih procesa za oblikovanje reljefa od važnosti su i periglacijalni procesi. Kriogeni procesi utjecali su na oblikovanje reljefa središnjih i nižih dijelova padina Velebita
