I’m soil scientist and geographer. I’ve got position at the University in 1998.

My main scientific interest are:

- the genesis, properties and systematic position of natural and technogenic salt-affected and acid sulfate soils,

- studies on the adaptation of the international World Reference Base for Soil Resources classification to the soil conditions of Poland,

- studies on the relationships between the chemical composition of soils and the spatial diversity of vegetation,

- human influence on the functioning of soils in the urban and industrial landscape,

- effect of denudation processes on properties of sediments filling the small young glacial closed depressions.

First time I attended the SUITMA conference in 2003 year (Nancy, France).

I’m a chairman of the Bydgoszcz-Toruń Branch of Polish Soil Science Society and Board Member of PSSS (since 2015).
