ABSTRACT:
We are indebted to Professor Ivan Potočnjak for the first meteorology textbook in Croatian. In 1875, he started working at the College of Economy and Forestry in Križevci, where he spent many years as lecturer in meteorology and climatology and as Head of the local meteorological station. He published the first Croatian meteorology textbook in 1878. Besides this textbook, he published several other less known textbooks, alone or as coauthor. These textbooks being from different scientific fields, they were never considered collectively as the complete works of Ivan Potočnjak.
