The project:
This research project is aimed at studying the distribution and fluxes of inorganic pollutants in the Earth's surface spheres, with an emphasis on multidisciplinary approaches to understand their cycles and design processes that will lead to immobilization of pollution and reduce the risk of impact on biota. In contrast to previous individual research activities, the agenda of the project will primarily use innovative methodological approaches (e.g., the use of non-traditional isotope tools) that will lead to new findings in the areas under study. The plan is also to concentrate future research activities on the study of the distribution and flux of pollutants during natural processes being accelerated with the climate change and modern human lifestyles.
All questions and applications (1. CV, 2.list of publications, 3. half-page motivation letter, 4. contact details for two persons who can be asked for a reference) should be sent directly to email volnamista@natur.cuni.cz.
