Area of interest:

Complex approach to urban problems and its impact to the water bodies (impact on chemical, biological, morphological and hydrological component).

Assessment of ecological risks in urban drainage area.

Effect of heavy metals on aquatic life, changes in biological availability and its accumulation in food chains. Impact of urban drainage type on fate of heavy metals in an aquatic environment.
