These days, together with Hedvika Synková from the Department of Archaeology and Museology, Masaryk University, we're subsampling peat and chernozem-type soils in the lab for sedimentary ancient DNA analysis.
Excited to see what the data reveal!

Have you ever seen a tall-herb rich steppe? These fascinating communities, with their mix of montane and steppic species, may resemble the cold glacial steppes of the past. We've just returned from fieldwork in the peri-Carpathian steppes of eastern Romania—full of flowers and scientific value.
