Research area:
Hydroacoustic and the non-invasive methods of the seabed investigation
Why is your research important?
My research focuses on detecting and determining the impact of anthropogenic factors on the marine environment, particularly concerning hazardous substances present on the seabed (e.g., dumped munitions). This research helps protect marine ecosystems and the communities living in coastal areas.
What are your personal motivations?
I have always wanted to have an interesting job where I wouldn’t spend most of my time at a desk. Additionally, I like complex machines (like underwater robots), which I use daily in my work.
What are you going to do during the cruise onboard?
During the cruise, I will be operating a special type of scientific echosounder, which allows for precise detection of organisms (mainly fish and their aggregations) in the water column. Additionally, I will try to troubleshoot issues with other types of research equipment if they arise.
