EDUCATION
2011 - Agricultural University in Poznan, Poland, Post-Doctoral (Habilitation)
in Agricultural Science Qualifying for Professor position, Dissertation
title : "Spectral properties of abandon fields based on the ground, aerial
and satellite data".
1996 - Plant Protection Institute
Ph. D. in Agronomy, Dissertation title: "Bidirectional Reflectance Factors of winter rape crop during the growing season".
1984 - Agricultural Academy, Poznań. Master of Science in Agricultural Economy.
PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE:
1997 to present Place: Institute of Physical Geography and Environmental Planning,
Faculty of Geographical and Geological Scienses, Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań, Poland
Position: Lecturer (classes on soil science, lectures and classes on agricultural ecology)
1987 to 1997 Place: Plant Protection Institute in Poznan, Department of Forecasting Methods and Pest and Diseases Registration,
Position: Research Assistant (Evaluation of plant protection advisory systems against Phytophthora infestans. Developing the system of pest and
disease registration in Poland. Developing Remote Sensing methods of monitoring plant stress and pesticide efficiency based on spectral properties
of arable crops)
PROFESSIONAL INTERESTS: My scientific work spans the fields
of remote sensing, soil science and ecology. I combine field studies and airborne and satellite remote sensing to identification of abandoned
lands, estimation their acreage and assessment of succession stage of their vegetation. I take spectral field measurement of arable crops and
fallow fields and gathered spectral data are used to improve the interpretation procedures of satellite and airborne images.
