Dr. Árpád Ferincz - MATE Research
Overview
Dr. Árpád Ferincz initially focused on distribution pattern analysis and ecological risk assessment of non-indigenous fish species. Later on, in parallel with participating (H2020, NVKP) and coordinating (GINOP) 'applied' research project he became experienced in fishery management and anthropogenic loads (nutrient, micropollutant) on surface waters, especially fish assemblages.
