From 2021 Deputy Project Manager LIFE IP NATURA 2000 SVK (LIFE19 IPE/SK/003)
The main objective of the LIFE Integrated Project Nature “Role of the Natura 2000 network and management of some prioritized habitats in the integrated landscape protection of the Slovak Republic” is implementation of the Prioritised Action Framework for Natura 2000 network in Slovakia 2021 – 2027, pursuant to Article 8 of the Habitats Directive 92/43/EEC. This goal shall enable to achieve the Target 1 of the EU Biodiversity Strategy and general objectives of the EU Habitats and BirdsDirectives. with respect to the contribution towards improving conservation status of some specific and prioritised species and habitat types and may include also broader actions in the field of green infrastructure that contribute to better coherence of Natura 2000 network in a broader and cross-border context.
Since 2023, deputy of the principal investigator for VEGA project No. 1/0255/23 titled "Road Network as a Linear Element for the Migration and Spreading of Organisms in the context of Ongoing Climate Change."
The project focuses on the impact of the road network and transport on the surrounding biota, with regard to
higher vascular plants and entomofauna. The project will contribute to the current knowledge of the biota of the road environment and will help to establish the scientific direction of road ecology in the consciousness of academic as well as public life.
Since 2023, a scientific co-worker of the research team for VEGA project No. 1/0217/23 titled "Modern Methods and Actual Data Sources in Detailed Research of the Landscape Spatial Structure."
The project's aim is to develop methods for detailed research of the landscape spatial structure, changes in land cover, and their application to selected areas of interest that are representative of both cultural and natural landscapes in Slovakia. The results achieved will contribute to the advancement of geographic research and refine knowledge about both the natural and cultural landscapes of Slovakia. Additionally, the project’s outputs will be applicable in the field of landscape management and conservation.
Since 2025 a scientific co-worker of the research team for project VV-MVP-24-0207 titled Biological Corridors and Arthropods Biodiversity in Agricultural Landscapes
Annotation
Biological corridors in agricultural landscapes offer multifaceted ecosystem services, enhance biodiversity, support agricultural productivity, improv the stability of biotopes, serve as refuges for various organisms, and contribute to environmental sustainability. Integrating these corridors into agricultural management practices fosters more resilient and sustainable agroecosystems. This project focuses on the study of biological corridors in intensively utilized agricultural landscapes, comparing the large-scale monoculture fields of southwestern Slovakia, which have a long-established system of biological corridors, with the small-scale diversified fields of northern Serbia, where the concept of ecological connectivity is less established. The main aim of this project is to study the relationship between the diversity and dynamics of selected bioindicatively significant groups of arthropods (harvestmen, spiders, mites, ground beetles, ants and thrips) in differently managed corridors and a wide range of autecological, synecological and environmental parameters. Considering that the agricultural landscape is heavily interwoven with linear elements (transport infrastructure), facilitating the spread of non-native species, the project will also assess the potential entry of these non-native species and their possible impacts on the diversity and stability of natural and agrarian ecosystems. The study of the behavioural and ecological aspects of competition between non-native and native species is therefore an integral part of the project. Based on these analyses, management measures will be proposed to preserve arthropod diversity in agrarian systems through the implementation of suitable biological corridors. The project will improve understanding of the importance of biological corridors in supporting arthropod diversity in agricultural landscapes and will provide new insights into targeted conservation and management practices for sustainable agroecosystems.
