We work on projects and research contracts, including descriptive field studies, and experimental trials at field, greenhouse, lab and climatic chambers with controleld atmosphere.
Our sources of funding are public funds (competitive regional, national and European calls) and private (companies).
The work topics focus on environmental aspects of ecosystems and agroecosystems, from the point of view of the soil-plant relationships, sediments, soil and water contamination and ecotoxicity, and eutrophication.
