FLUXFLOOD PROJECT

Team

Anna Sieczko, PhD - Principal Investigator
Warsaw University of Life Sciences

Aquatic biogeochemist with a focus on carbon cycling in freshwater. She has been involved in research which linked carbon fluxes, dissolved organic matter and microbial activity in projects conducted in Austria and Sweden.In the FLUXFLOOD project her focus is on impact of hydrological changes, mainly flooding on methane and carbon dioxide emissions from river floodplains and wetlands systems, which are susceptible to global warming, what places them as potentially increasing greenhouse gas sources. The aim is to decipher main drivers of CH4 and CO2 flux on various temporal scales with particular focus on event-driven fluxes and short-term variability.
