Research Interests:

  • Assessing impact of environmental factors on development of natural and changed forest ecosystems
  • Identifying and assessing impact of environmental stressors, including anthropogenic, on vitality of plant species
  • Assessing of growth and production ability of herb layer of forest ecosystems
  • Evaluation of processes of spatial distribution and accumulation of nutrients, risk elements and energy in soils and plant species
