PSEUDOKARST SYMPOSIA

The Symposia on Pseudokarst have had the tradition longer than 25 years. The idea was born in the former Czechoslovakia and one of the “fathers” of this idea was Jiři Kopecký, now one of the Honorary Presidents of the Pseudokarst Commission. The first Symposium was held in this country as a national meeting, but with the attendance of participants from abroad. The next Symposia have had also the international character and have been hold usually each 2-3 years, with a longer break in the time of Covid.
