Leading Researcher, Agroecology and Mass Analysis Laboratory, PhD Geology/Mineralogy
Specializes in:
- Radioecology, radionuclide behaviour in natural environments and agroecosystems,
- Migration and radioecological role of radon in natural and anthropogenic environments,
- Mineral resources of Polesye region and their rational use.
Graduated from Francisk Skorina Gomel State University, Faculty of Geology, with a degree in Engineering Geology.
Defended his PhD thesis with a major in Geochemistry, Mineralogy and Petrography.
Notable achievements:
- Comprehensive studies on the determination of 137Cs and 90Sr migration parameters in organic soil biogeocenoses,
- Elaborate theoretical aspects of biological availability of radionuclides, including the impact assessment of the concentrations and activities of cationic radionuclides in soil solutions on the parameters of their uptake and accumulation by plants,
- Development of soil conditioners for the recovery of disturbed areas, reduction of radionuclide accumulation by plants and overall soil fertility improvement,
- Comprehensive studies on the formation and patterns of geochemical behavior of radon and its impact on the radioecological quality of the environment,
- A newly developed Mineral Resource Potential Assessment System for the Polesye region contaminated following the Chernobyl radioactive fallout.
Throughout his entire scientific career, he has produced more than 100 published scientific works.
