Publication in Coastal Research – Beachmeter and AI in coastal areas
A new article by Patryk Sitkiewicz has just been published in the Coastal Research series (Springer). In this work, the author presents the first attempt at semi-automated monitoring of coastal morphodynamics. Patryk developed and applied his own tool, Beachmeter, and trained an artificial intelligence model capable of independently interpreting the results of GIS analyses. The […]

Publication in Catena – landslide dating in Sudety Mts.
Karol Tylmann together with his colleagues, is presenting landslide-related research in Sudety Mountains. Although it may seem unusual, their article published in Catena features beryllium. This is essentially the first application of beryllium-based landslide dating in the Sudetes. The studied landslide turned out to be remarkably old – its age is estimated at 50–60 thousand […]

Department Seminars – Olga Reutt
On Thursday, December 11, our Department hosted another scientific seminar. This time, we had the pleasure of listening to a presentation by Olga Reutt, who introduced the topic: “Local bedrock contribution to geochemistry of glacigenic deposits – case study at Årsdale, Bornholm.” Olga presented an engaging and accessible combination of geology and geochemistry in the […]
Publication in Ocean Coast. Manag. – Shoreline Management in China
Although December weather still surrounds us and the calendar shows 2025, we are moving forward in time and sharing our first publication for 2026. Together with Patryk Sitkiewicz, we explore a place we have never visited before – a high-energy coastline along the Taiwan Strait in China. A series of fascinating shoreline restoration measures were […]
