Isotopic paleoecology of mid-sized carnivorans

MK photo biogram.jpgDr. Magdalena Krajcarz is an assistant professor at the Institute of Archaeology (Department of Environmental Archeology & Human Paleoecology), the Faculty of History NCU. She is a zooarchaeologist, specialized in paleoecology and taphonomy of the Late Pleistocene and Holocene faunal assemblages. The main focus of her research is within classical zooarchaeological methods and biomolecular approaches, especially stable isotope analysis. She is a member of archaeological expeditions conducting researches at Paleolithic cave sites in Poland, Russia and Kyrgyzstan.

He gained a PhD grade in Earth Sciences at the University of Warsaw in 2010, and habilitation in 2018 at the IGS PAS. His main research focus is Quaternary sediments, in particular the Upper Pleistocene and Holocene fauna-rich deposits at archaeological sites. He applies geochemical methods such as analysis of stable isotopes and trace elements in fossil bones to track paleoecology and taphonomic processes.

Jan Wiejacki is an archaeozoologist whose interests are focused on remains of domestic and wild mammals and their exploitation in the past. He graduated from University of Łódź (BA in archaeology under prof. M. Mączyńska) and Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń (MA in archaeology under prof. D. Makowiecki). Currently he works on PhD about history of hunting in Greater Poland and Pomerania during the Early Middle Ages.
