About

Environmental engineer and modeler, Mr. Tomasz Dysarz is a scientists from Poznan University of Life Sciences in Poland. His professional activity is related to flood management, river and reservoir flow, and sediment transport in water systems. These interests were essential in his work for several research institutions in Poland. In periods 2013-2015 and 2017-2020, he was participating in the implementation of the EU Flood Directive as an employee of the Institute of Meteorology and Water Management in Poland. It has given him unique experience and insight into the problems of flood risk management. He also cooperates as a member of editorial and advisory boards with Journal of Flood Risk Management (Wiley), Water (MDPI), and Land (MDPI). In his professional work, MR Tomasz Dysarz is implementing hydraulic and hydrologic modeling, GIS software, and programming tools.
