In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary scientific interests are in Environmental chemistry, Anaerobic oxidation of methane, Methane, Greenhouse gas and Water quality. Many of his research projects under Environmental chemistry are closely connected to Danube delta with Danube delta, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His research investigates the connection with Anaerobic oxidation of methane and areas like Bottom water which intersect with concerns in Nitrite and Biogeochemical cycle.

Epilimnion is closely connected to Carbon dioxide in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Methane. His Greenhouse gas research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Drainage basin and Wetland. His Water quality research is classified as research in Hydrology.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

Reviews and syntheses: Dams, water quality and tropical reservoir stratification (29 citations)
Reviews and syntheses: Dams, water quality and tropical reservoir stratification (29 citations)
