Mateusz Kramkowski

Dr. Mateusz Kramkowski is a Researcher at the Department of Environmental Resources and Geohazards, Institute of Geography and Spatial Organization, Polish Academy of Sciences, where he has been affiliated since 2013. He holds a PhD in Earth Sciences (Geography) from 2017, with a doctoral thesis on environmental changes in Lake Jelonek sediments. His education includes a Bachelor's and Master's in Geography from Kazimierz Wielki University and postgraduate studies in Geology at Adam Mickiewicz University.

Research Focus: Kramkowski specializes in reconstructing past environmental changes using geochemical and sedimentological methods. His core interests include:

• Paleogeography and geomorphology of Quaternary landscapes
• Analysis of laminated lake deposits for climate records
• Tephrochronology and dead-ice landform dynamics
• Human-environment interactions in medieval Central Europe

Publication Trends: His recent work (2021–2025) emphasizes lacustrine sedimentology, glacial/periglacial processes, and anthropogenic impacts on landscapes. Common themes include varve chronology, charcoal production effects, and LiDAR-based glacial landform mapping. Collaborations frequently involve multi-proxy approaches across Polish and German institutions.

Projects & Teams: Kramkowski actively contributes to field-based projects like ICLEA (Integrated Climate and Landscape Evolution Analysis), focusing on Northern Poland's glacial history. He co-leads paleolimnological sessions and collaborates with interdisciplinary teams on peatland, soil, and geoarchaeological studies.
