COLLABORATIONS
In my work I cooperate with colleagues from the Marine Biology Station and from the Slovenian Environment Agency and often with researchers from other countries as well. I was involved in European projects PERSEUS, I-STORMS and PETRI-MED. I spent two months at University of Bergen and nine months at University of Lisbon.

FIELD OF RESEARCH
My research encompases ocean modeling, copuled bio-physical modeling, oceanographic measurements and jellyfish ecology.
