My research has been focused before all on various environmental gechemical problems. My research begun with geochemistry of waters with respect to toxic metals such as Be, Al and Pb. Further envrionmetal theme I came ecross has been the acidification, its effects on environment and connected problems. Recent topics of my research are dynamics of mercury (Hg) in the environment, geochemical research of the dust materials and redox processes in forest soils.
Motto of the geochemical research: "Describe universe on two pages and make at least two examples" by my favorite geochemist Steve Norton
