Nice to meet you!

I am a PhD student in Environmental Sciences at Charles University (Czech Republic). I am passionate about soils and land-climate interactions, so it's no surprise I focus on recent cha(lle)nges in soils. During my PhD studies, I am looking at the two-way relationship between soil organic matter and drought. How does soil organic matter affect the soil drought resilience? And what impact does drought have on soil organic matter and soil carbon sequestration?

Before, I earned both my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Physical Geography at Masaryk University. Back then, I was intrigued by microplastics in soils that I studied in the Outer Hebides in Scotland and later in one of the Czech rivers.

Additionally, my interests lie in GIS, spatial modelling, sustainable agriculture, or policy. I also enjoy outreach! I believe it's a very important if not essential part of science.

I am or my husband is the author of all the photos, including the microscope images.
