I am a sedimentologist and stratigrapher interested in past sea level and climate changes and tectonic evolution of sedimentary basins. I emphasize interdisciplinary approaches to studying the sedimentary record, in broad collaboration with specialists from many areas of Earth Science. Combining geophysical, sedimentological, geochemical, and paleontological data, and both numerical and analogue modelling, we can visualize and interpret many processes on the interface between the Earth\u2019s crust and its surface.
In 2018-2020, I led the Department of Geodynamics at the Institute of Geophysics and from 2021 to 2023, the Sedimentary Basins Team which from January 2024 onwards has become a part of the Surface Processes and Paleoclimate Team (SPP). Since 2019 I have served as Deputy Director of our institute. I have contributed to strategic development of the Institute of Geophysics since 2018, including its structural change and internationalization.
Since autumn 2019, I have reduced my FTE at the institute to 0.8 because of my part-time employment at the Faculty of Science, Charles University. Through teaching, student supervision, invited seminars, direct research collaborations and other activities I am contributing to closer ties between the Academy of Sciences and the Charles University, which I consider key to the long-term viability of geoscience research in our country.<\/p>\n
