Karl-Bernhard Jubitz

Karl-Bernhard Jubitz , (born November 14, 1925 in Berlin ; † November 18, 2007 ) was a German geologist.

From 1946 Jubitz studied geology at the Humboldt University in Berlin with Hans Stille and Serge Bubnoff . In 1952 he passed his state examination to become a geologist with Franz Lotze (with whom he studied in Münster) and Hans Stille (fine stratigraphic-petrographic investigations in the Triassic between Osnabrück and Melle in Hanover). This also resulted in his dissertation in 1953 (on the tectonic structure between Osnabrück and Melle in Hanover). As a student of Stille, Bubnoff and Lotze, he dealt with tectonics and in 1952 he became Stille's assistant at the newly founded Geotectonic Institute of the German Academy of Sciences in Berlin. In 1961 he took over the provisional management and in 1965 he became its director. After joining the Central Institute for Physics of the Earth (ZPE) of the Academy of Sciences of the GDR in Potsdam in 1969, he became head of the geology department there. In 1976, the dissertation B (Habilitation) with the writing target functions, main results and trends of tectonic-structural research at the Academy of Sciences of the GDR was carried out and in the same year he became a professor at the Academy of Sciences of the GDR, giving lectures in Greifswald and Leipzig.

He dealt mainly with the tectonics of overburden (table top mountains ). With Günter Schwab, he analyzed the basin dynamics of the Polish-North German Basin and dealt in particular with the shell limestone of the Rüdersdorf limestone quarry (with extensive documentation in a photo library after his retirement). He led numerous excursions in Rüdersdorf.

He was a founding member of the Geoscientists Association of Berlin and Brandenburg, of which he became an honorary member. In Rüdersdorf, a Jubitz-Stein adventure area for shell limestone was opened at the Otto Torell House .
