Effect of mature spruce forest on canopy interception in subalpine conditions during three growing seasons
Published 2021-12-01“…The natural mountain spruce forest where our measurements of throughfall and gross precipitation were carried out, is located on the tree line at an elevation of 1,420 m a.s.l. in the Western Tatra Mountains (Slovakia, Central Europe). This paper presents an evaluation of the interception process in a natural mature spruce stand during the growing season from May to October in 2018–2020. …”

Mapping spatiotemporal mortality patterns in spruce mountain forests using Sentinel-2 data and environmental factors
Published 2025-05-01“…For this purpose, a 10-year time series of Sentinel-2 optical satellite data fused with Sentinel-1 radar and topographic derivatives was applied to the natural forests of the Tatra Mountains in Central Europe. Based on machine learning algorithms and iterative methods, overall classification accuracies of 0.94–0.96 and snags with an F1-score of 0.81–0.98 were achieved. …”

Environmental gradients and optimal fixation time revealed with DNA metabarcoding of benthic sample fixative
Published 2024-08-01“…In this study, we present a proof of concept via the analysis of freshwater invertebrate samples from the Tatra Mountain lakes (Slovakia). Besides highlighting a match between the lake-specific environmental conditions and the results of our fixative DNA metabarcoding, we observed an option to fine-tune the fixation time: to prefer two weeks over a day or a month. …”

Analysis of the Suitability of High-Resolution DEM Obtained Using ALS and UAS (SfM) for the Identification of Changes and Monitoring the Development of Selected Geohazards in the A...
Published 2020-11-01“…Research presented in this study demonstrates the results for the usability of the publicly available national digital elevation model DEM 5.0 obtained by utilizing the airborne laser scanning (ALS) survey to monitor the development of erosion, morphological changes of talus cones, or the dynamics of movement of rock blocks between stages of measurement in the alpine environment of the High Tatras mountains. The reference methods for this study are the terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) and structure-from-motion (SfM) photogrammetric approach using unmanned aerial systems (UASs). …”
