A. Boratyński - INSTYTUT DENDROLOGII

Research focus:

I conduct research on systematics, geography, ecology, and the variability of trees and shrubs in Europe and Mediterranean Sea region.

I am currently dealing with the geographic distribution and conditions for incidence of mountainous trees, shrubs and prostrate shrubs in East Carpathian Mountains in Ukraine.

Also, based on the data in the literature on the subject and my own field observations, I am preparing monographs on selected species of the Juniperus genus which can be found in the Mediterranean Sea region.

In exploring both topics, I collaborate with an extensive group of scientists from Poland and abroad.

Keywords:

trees and shrubs, biodiversity, biogeography, morphology and geographic variability, horology, geographic distribution modelling
