Cesare Emiliani

Cesare Emiliani

Cesare Emiliani ( * 8 de diciembre de 1922- 20 de julio de 1995) fue un geólogo italiano, y muy reconocido micropaleontólogo e isotopista geoquímico, fundador de la paleo-oceanografía.

Emiliani nació en Bolonia, Italia, y sus padres fueron Luigi y Maria (Manfredidi) Emiliani. Murió en Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, EE. UU..

Junto con Roger Revelle y muchos otros desarrolló activamente el programa JOIDES que se basó en el proyecto original LOCO (LOng COres).

Fue un científico renacentista – polígloto y hombre muy leído – y adversario militante de posturas dogmáticas al igual que de toda rigidez mental. Era por este motivo que en sus últimos años consagró mucho tiempo en despertar interés por una reforma del calendario - con origen en la época holocena. Su ambición fue eliminar el hiato entre la escala a. C. y la escala dC. Éste es igual a 1 año porque cada escala tiene origen 1 como consecuencia de la definición del Calendario Gregoriano.
