HISTORIA GEOLOGII I WSPOMNIENIA Profesor Ryszard Dadlez – stratygraf, tektonik, pionier nowoczesnych metod w badaniach geologii regionalnej Polski
Abstract
Professor Ryszard Dadlez – stratigrapher, tectonicist, pioneer of modern methods in the study of regional geology of Poland.
A b s t r a c t. Ryszard Dadlez (1931–2008), Polish Professor of geology, graduated from the University of Warsaw, associated with the Polish Geological Institute in Warsaw throughout his professional life. He was a leading researcher of deep-seated Caledonian, Variscan and younger geologic structures of the Polish Lowlands, a precursor of their interpretation on the basis of lithospheric plate tectonics, and a co-creator of the synthetic model of the development of the Permo-Mesozoic Basin (the Polish Basin). He participated in international geophysical and geological research programs for the contact between the East European Craton and the Paleozoic Platform (TTZ). He worked on stratigraphy and palaeogeography of the Lower Jurassic using innovative methods of palaeontological and palaeoecological analysis.
