It is our great pleasure to invite you to participate in the conference "GEOLOGICA CARPATHICA 70" that will be organized to celebrate the 70th Anniversary of the foundation of the journal Geologica Carpathica. The conference will provide opportunities to present and share the latest geological findings from orogenic belts during three days (October 9–11, 2019). The conference will enable discussion among the journal’s authors and members of the Editorial Board. Importantly, the conference represents a tribute to the 100th anniversary of the birth of Academician Bohuslav Cambel who significantly contributed to the development and international recognition of the Geologica Carpathica.
Geologica Carpathica has been founded in order to improve and disseminate research studies regarding the geology of the Alpine–Carpathian–Himalayan orogenic system. The first issue of the Geologica Carpathica was published by the Slovak Academy of Sciences and Arts in 1950. English-only articles have been published since 1991, and indexing in the Web of Science has began in 1996. The articles cover tectonics, stratigraphy, palaeontology, sedimentology, mineralogy, petrology, geochemistry and ore deposits, all preferentially from orogenic belts.
Conference themes
Theme 1: Tectonic history of the Alpine–Carpathian–Balkan orogenic belt
Theme 2: Petrology and geochemistry: towards geodynamics and metallogeny
Theme 3: Stratigraphy, sedimentology, and palaeobiology of the Tethyan and Paratethyan Realms
