About us

The Department of Geomorphology and Quaternary Geology continues the tradition of geomorphological research in Pomerania initiated in 1959 by Professor Bolesław Augustowski. Successive heads of the geomorphological team were Professors Bogusław Rosa (1970-1996), Roman Gołębiewski (1996-2008) and Stanisław Fedorowicz (2008-2022). Research problems included geomorphological mapping of postglacial landscapes in Poland, issues related to the morphology and development of valley network of Pomerania, investigations of the sedimentary cover of the southern Baltic Sea, issues of Neopleistocene chronostratigraphy using the TL method, as well as paleogeographic studies based on palynological and diatom analyses.

Currently, the head of the Department is Professor Wojciech Tylmann. As a result of the evolution of research problems and the gradual specialization of scientists, two independent research teams have emerged in the structure of the Department: Paleoenvironmental Research Laboratory and Geomorphological Reconstructions Laboratory.
