THE SCIENTIFIC EXCURSION
During the field trip, we will present Quaternary of the Sudetes, its geological and
geomorphological significance and linkage with regional evolution during the Pleistocene.
Sedimentary sequences, as well as isotopic and geochronological data, will allow understanding the
evolution of Sudetic caves (Niedźwiedzia and Radochowska) and mountain topography. We will
also visit Karkonosze Mts., highest mountain range within the Bohemian Massif, glacially reshaped
during the Pleistocene. Here, we will discuss the chronology of mountain glaciation and views on
long- and short-term relief evolution, basing i.a. on the recent cosmogenic and thermochronological
data. As complementary sites, we will visit outcrops of Quaternary deposits within the Fore-Sudetic
Block, including Holsteinian interglacial limnic deposits in Krzczonów area and loess-soil sequence
in Biały Kościół. During the last day of the field trip, we will visit the unique cave and karst
landscape (with palaeontological and archaeological sites) of the Ojców National Park (Polish Jura)
located in the southern part of Poland, around 15 km from Kraków.
