Andrija Mohorovičić (1857– 1936) – on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of his birth

Andrija Mohorovičić, a seismologist of the world renown and the greatest Croatian scientist of all times, was born 150 years ago, on 23 January 1857 in Volosko near Rijeka, Croatia. Although his name is mostly associated with the discovery of the crust-mantle boundary, his other achievements in seismology, as well as those in other geophysical disciplines, certainly deserve to be remembered. Mohorovičić enrolled into the Prague University to study mathematics and physics in 1875. The very solid foundations in science obtained there from professors like Ernst Mach or Heinrich Durè ge, are clearly reflected in his later work and scientific attitude. An overview of his days in Prague is given by Orlić (1998). After graduation he taught at high schools in Zagreb and Osijek, and at the Nautical School in Bakar. In 1892 he became the director of the Meteorological Observatory in Zagreb. The following year Mohorovičić obtained the doctorate of philosophy at the Zagreb University, where he was later elected a titular associate university professor to teach courses on geophysics and astronomy. He became the corresponding member of the (which?) Academy in 1893, and the full member in 1898. Mohorovičić retired in 1922. An excellent and thorough account of his life and scientific accomplishments was published in a monograph by Skoko and Mokrović (1982, 1998) in Croatian and English.
