RNDr. Jan T. Kozák PhD, (1938), graduated from Charles University (mathematics and physics) and has been associated with the Institute of Geophysics at the Czech Academy of Science in Prague since 1965. In addition to his main professional fields (observatory seismology, rotational seismic effects) he has been increasingly involved in the history of natural sciences in the context of Earth’s dynamical manifestations. He has been awarded numerous Czech and international projects, including two Czech-US three-year projects on historical seismicity. He is the author of more than two hundred original research papers and several cin the field of historical seismology, volcanology and geological cartography.
Alena Čejchanová, (1956), graduated from Charles University in Prague (geology, geochemistry) and is head of the specialized archive at the Czech Geological Survey in Prague. Her main expertise lies in the field of geology, analysis of various specialized documents, database processing and access. Her interests include the history of geology and geological mapping, especially in Central Europe, and she has published numerous scientific papers on these subjects.
Prof. RNDr. Zdeněk Kukal (1932), graduate of Charles University, Prague (Geology, petrology and mineralogy) and former director the Czech Geological Survey, Prague. He was also professor of geology of Kuwait and Baghdad universities. An expert in sedimentology; regional, structural, environmental and marine geology as well as the history of geosciences in the Czech lands, he is the author of about 300 scientific papers, 30 scientific textbooks (on sedimentology, environmental geology, building stones, structural geology, history of geology) and books on popular science (Atlantis, marine geology, Earth´s landscape, and stones and humans).
Karel Pošmourný (1938), received his (Rer.Nat. Dr.) degree and PhD from the Faculty of S
