VI.5 - Participation in conducting (leading) the most important research projects or art projects over the last six years

Study of karst waters using isotopic hydrogeology methods; VEGA No. 1/0636/15; co-investigator. Within the framework of the project, new knowledge was obtained about the conditions of formation, circulation and chemical composition of cave waters in the Krásnohorská Cave system on the Silická Plain. Hydrogeochemical research demonstrated the spatial and temporal zonality of the chemical and microbiological composition of waters in the Krásnohorská Cave. The results of the isotopic composition of waters contributed to the clarification of the origin of water and sulfates in the waters of the Krásnohorská Cave

Formation of karst waters of the Silická plain with a focus on the hydrogeological system of the Krásnohorská cave. VEGA 1/0899/12; co-investigator. The project proposed optimal procedures for hydrogeochemical assessment for the specific conditions of cave circulations of the Silická plain. The project contributed to the clarification of the genesis of the chemical composition of karst waters and the transport of substances in the cave systems of the Silická plain. A characterization of the microbial revitalization of the waters of the cave systems of the Silická plain and their microbial contamination by natural and zooanthropogenic factors was developed.
