Introduction
My scientific interests center on landscape structure analysis using geographic information systems (GIS) and remote sensing, focusing on uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) for spatial data acquisition, processing, and visualization. My recent work extends to studying ecosystem services (ESs) and environmental management, especially in young glacial areas. I also investigate how climate change disrupts ecosystem functioning across various environments, mainly in mountain and post-glacial regions.

This study represents a pioneering effort to analyze the impact of avalanches descending into Morskie Oko from Marchwiczny Gully, the most active avalanche path around the lake. It focuses on catastrophic avalanches that descended from the analyzed gully, as reported in the literature from the 1900s until now. However, only the data collected in re...
Development of urban green areas and awareness of their value among citizens and local authorities is rapidly growing. This trend is not only the result of the coronavirus pandemic, but also reflects a belief in the role of green areas in reducing the negative effects of climate change and supporting overall well-being. As a consequence, more and m...
Poland’s traditional, i.e., non-GIS, regionalization needed to be updated for landscape audit purposes. Its spatial accuracy appeared insufficient, which led to the verification and adjustment of the existing physical-geographical mesoregions using GIS and high-resolution spatial data. In Poland, provincial landscape audits are part of implementing...
Report on clusters in the Wielkopolska Region financed by the European Union from the European Social Fund and the Government of the Wielkopolska Region under the Regional Operational Program for Wielkopolska 2014-2020.
Our paper presents problems of local waste management systems in Poland using the example of the environmentally valuable area of Pobiedziska urban-rural commune, which has serious problems with municipal waste management. Right now, illegal waste sites are common all over this precious area due to low ecological awareness by the inhabitants. We wi...
