was also at this time that he took over a position of the chief editor of the main Slovenian<br />

geological magazine – Geologija; a work that he carried out until the year 1998<br />

In 1985 he was elected an ordinary time professor at the University of Ljubljana In 1982-<br />

1983 he spent a year as a guest professor at the Institute of geology and palaeontology at the<br />

University of Stuttgart where he gave lectures on geology of Yugoslavia and the broader<br />

Dinaridic area In the summer semester of year 1987 he lectured as a guest professor to the<br />

students of Institute for sedimentary research at the University of Heidelberg During his<br />

stay in Stuttgart and Heidelberg he occasionally held lectures at various geological institutes<br />

and at universities in Munich and Erlangen For a brief time in the year of 1989 he also<br />

spent some time as a guest professor at the Institute of geology and palaeontology at the<br />

Technical University in West Berlin He frequently lead numerous foreign geology student<br />

groups from various universities, mostly from Germany, on field trips across Slovenia, and<br />

worked as a mentor for a graduate or Ph degrees for students from universities of Ljubljana,<br />

Heidelberg, Munich, Erlangen, Cologne, Berlin and Göttingen In the beginning of 1993 he<br />

took a job as a full time professor at the Department of Geology of the University of Ljubljana<br />

where he gave lectures on //subjects of// stratigraphy and regional geology for geology<br />

students, and lectures on general geology for geography students He also led the field trips<br />

in the frame of these subjects as well as the final field trip for geology students<br />

In the year 1989 he entered the politics, and in the following year he was elected member of<br />

the first democratic Slovenian parliament After more than 31 professional years spent at<br />

the Slovenian geological survey he became a professional politician – a position he kept<br />

until the year 2002 He stayed a member of the parliament until the end of the year 1992,<br />

and in the same year he, as a member of the Slovenian people party, ran for the president of<br />

Slovenia<br />

In the years 1998-2002 he was the first residential Slovenian ambassador in Switzerland<br />

After his return home he resumed his position as a full time professor at the University of<br />

Ljubljana where he is still active today<br />

The essence of professor <strong>Stanko</strong> Buser’s professional and scientific work is solving problems<br />

concerned with the stratigraphy and regional geology of Slovenia As a field geologist<br />

he started the work at mapping for the Basic geological map of Yugoslavia in the year 1958,<br />

and stayed with this project until its termination in 1988, when the complete map was finished<br />

During this time he mapped an important portion of the Slovenian territory As a<br />

result he signed his name as a first author of the following sheets and books of the Basic<br />

geological map of Yugoslavia – Postojna, Gorica, Ribnica, Celje, Celovec (Klagenfurt) and<br />

Tolmin He also played an important role in geological research that was part of producing<br />

the Ilirska Bistrica, Kranj, Beljak (Villach) and Ravne na Koroškem sheets of the Basic<br />

geological map (at scale 1: 100 000)<br />

Sloveniji na Tolminskem, v Bohinju, dolini Baèe in na Cerkljanskem Podoben razvoj teh<br />

plasti mu je uspelo odkriti še naprej proti vzhodu S tem je dokazal njihovo razširjenost v<br />

celotni osrednji Sloveniji, hkrati pa tudi obstoj Slovenskega bazena, v katerem so omenjene<br />

plasti tudi nastale Kasneje je dognal, da se je ta bazen v osrednjem Posoèju izklinjal in ni<br />

bil povezan z Belunskim bazenom v severni Italiji<br />

Na obmoèju Julijskih Alp je dopolnil poznavanje globljemorskih jurskih in krednih plasti v<br />

razvoju, ki je sledil po nagli pogreznitvi Julijske karbonatne platforme S soavtorjem je<br />

ugotovil pomikanje flišnega bazena v Sloveniji, ki je potekalo v smeri od severa proti jugu<br />

V vzhodnih južnih Karavankah je prispeval k razjasnitvi bio- in litostratigrafskih problemov<br />

devona, spodnjega in zgornjega karbona ter perma Sedaj ponovno prouèuje stratigrafijo<br />

kamnin v Dolžanovi soteski Precej je pripomogel tudi pri pojasnitvi stratigrafskih problemov<br />

terciarnih plasti in paleogeografskih dogajanj na Štajerskem Geološke razmere stalno<br />

spremlja tudi pri gradnji avtocest<br />

Zelo so pomembna tudi njegova odkritja v zvezi s tektonsko zgradbo Slovenije V vzhodnem<br />

delu Posavskih gub je odkril veè pomembnih sinklinal in antiklinal ter tri narivne pokrove<br />

Na obmoèju zahodnih Karavank je izloèil še Južnokaravanški pokrov V Julijskih Alpah je<br />

ugotovil tri narivne pokrove z vmesno lusko V njihovem predgorju je izdvojil tri narivne<br />

pokrove Na podlagi biostratigrafskega razvoja in paleografskega dogajanja je Južne Alpe<br />

uvrstil v Dinaride V okviru Dinaridov kot tektonske enote najvišjega reda loèi še Južne<br />

Alpe, Notranje in Zunanje Dinaride Na podroèju Slovenije je na novo odkril številne prelome<br />

V Sloveniji je odkril številna nova nahajališèa fosilov in jih paleontolškim raziskovalcem<br />

pomagal stratigrafsko pravilno uvrstiti Nekatere vrste fosilov so dobile po njem tudi svoja<br />

imena<br />

V Sloveniji ima zasluge tudi pri popularizaciji geologije kot naravoslovne vede V zvezi s<br />

tem je pomembna njegova Slovenska geološka pot, ki se vije po Karavankah, èez Julijske<br />

Alpe, njihovo predgorje in Kras ter osrednjo Slovenijo vse do Gorjancev<br />

Aktivno je sodeloval pri organizaciji raznih kongresov, simpozijev in posvetovanj (simpozij<br />

o Dinardih, simpozij o Karavankah, jugoslovanski geološki kongres na Bledu, evropski<br />

simpozij za mikropaleontologijo, mednarodni simpozij o kraških karbonatnih platformah)<br />

V Slovenskem geološkem društvu je imel vsako leto vsaj eno predavanje Predaval je na<br />

sedmih jugoslovanskih geoloških kongresih in srbskih ter hrvaških geoloških društvih in na<br />

Akademiji znanosti v Budimpešti ter v Sofiji Predaval je tudi na raznih mednarodnih<br />

kongresih, simpozijih in konferencah (Dunaj, Gradec, Budimpešta, Bratislava, Innsbruck,<br />

For more than 10 years he performed the follow-up field observations and corrections as a<br />

part of his work on the Geological map of Slovenia at a scale of 1:200 000<br />

For four years he took a part in exploration of bauxite deposits in Istria, and for three years<br />

of mercury deposits in Slovenia For one year he lead a group of geologists at the field<br />

research of the Murgul ore deposits in the Pontian mountains, NE Turkey<br />

He was the first Slovenian geologist that started using the terms carbonate platform and<br />

basin, and he based this theory on several examples established in central and southern<br />

Slovenia<br />

In the major part of Slovenia he completed the lithostratigraphic and biostratigraphic subdivision<br />

of Paleozoic, Mesozoic and Tertiary strata<br />

An important part of <strong>Stanko</strong> Buser’s work is a contribution to the subdivision of Triassic,<br />

Jurassic and Cretaceous beds in the deep-sea Slovenian basin He first discovered and described<br />

these strata in the Tolmin, Bohinj, Baèa valley and Cerkljansko areas, and he discovered<br />

similar rocks also farther eastwards With his discovery he was able to prove the<br />

existence of these strata in the whole central part of Slovenia, and at the same time the<br />

presence of the so called Slovenian basin in which these strata were deposited Latter he<br />

was able to prove that the basin wedges out in the Posoèje area, and its nonlinkage to the<br />

Belluno basin in northern Italy In the territory of the Julian Alps he completed the knowledge<br />

of deep-sea Jurassic and Cretaceous strata in the facies that followed the rapid subsidence<br />

of the Julian carbonate platform Together with a co-worker he discovered that the<br />

flysch basin in the Slovenian area slowly shifted in a N-S direction from the Cretaceous<br />

period on In the eastern part of the southern Karavanke mountains he made an important<br />

contribution to clarification of bio- and lithostratigraphic uncertainties in Devonian, Lower<br />

and Upper Carboniferous and Permian strata At present he is closely investigating and<br />

reevaluating the stratigraphy of rocks in the Dovžan gorge His work contributed essentially<br />

also to the explanation of stratigraphical problems of Tertiary strata and paleogeographical<br />

conditions in the Styrian area He is constantly in contact with the Slovenian highway construction<br />

project, assessing the geological conditions<br />

His work also contributed much to a better knowledge of tectonic conditions of Slovenia In<br />

the eastern part of the Sava folds he discovered several important synclines and anticlines<br />

and three thrust sheets In the area of Karavanke he described the south Karavanke thrust<br />

sheet, and in the Julian Alps he described three thrusts of an intermediate tectonic scale, and<br />

in the foreland of the mentioned mountains he also recognized three thrust sheets On the<br />

basis of biostratigraphy and paleogeographical conditions he classified the unit of Southern<br />

Alps, besides the Inner and Outer Dinarides, as a part of the Dinaridic tectonic unit He also<br />

discovered and named many new faults across the whole Slovenian territory<br />
