Professor Marek Eugeniusz Kraska was born in 1936 in Pyzdry in the Wielkopolska Region and there spent his childhood. He finished secondary school in Września in 1954, and then technical college with a chemical profile, after which he undertook professional employment. He later studied at the Faculty of Biology and Earth Sciences of Adam Mickiewicz University which he began in 1961, specializing in botany. He prepared his MSc degree thesis under the supervision of Prof. Florian Celiński and graduated in 1966. Throughout his further professional career Prof. Kraska remained with Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań. The subject of his doctoral degree thesis, the sedge communities of the Słowiński National Park, was completed in 1973 under the supervision of Prof. Izabela Dąmbska. The monograph which qualified him for professorship was entitled ”Reactions of a lake ecosystem on heated waters, with special regard to hydromacrophytes” which he finished in 1988. From December 1990 he was the head of the Department of Water Protection, which he directed until his retirement in 2006. In 1994 he was given the scientific title of professor, and in 1998 received the appointment of ordinary professor. In the 1970’s and 80’s together with Prof. Izabela Dąmbska he undertook research of aquatic vegetation of numerous lakes in the Lubuskie Lake District, within the area of the future Drawieński National Park, in Słowiński NP, Wielkopolski NP, on lakes of Gniezno and on lakes artificially heated by the powerplants in the region of Konin. In the 1990’s he began the ambitious task making comparative studies of the lobelian lakes in Poland. During this decade he examined all of the ca. 160 Polish lobelian lakes, some of them being subject to more than one thorough examination. From 1996 to the present his intensive scientific research has been conducted in the Bory Tucholskie National Park and in the Drawieński NP. In the latter Park the research on the structure and functioning of lake ecosystems, which display a great variety of types (dystrophic, mesotrophic, eutrophic, meromictic), as well as rivers and mixed river-lake systems, has been successfully conducted until now.

8 In total he has directed 19 research grants, from among this number five were awarded by the Committee of Scientific Research. The results of this research have resulted in 195 publications to date, published in many books, journals, conference proceedings, and reports. In recent years he has been the organizer or co-organizer of various scientific conferences, of large popularity. He has also participated in numerous limnological conferences both national and international, presenting both research data of his own and of his team. In former years these conferences were held in Czechoslovakia, Austria, Switzerland, Brazil, France, Australia, Ireland and India. Prof. Kraska is an esteemed academical teacher. He has supervised 73 MSc and 6 PhD theses. He was also the co-author of an innovatory curriculum of studies, realized from 2003 at the Faculty of Biology as a specialty called Hydrobiology and Water Protection. In spite of retirement he still lectures in three courses, offers guidence to both MSc candidates and PhD students. He is a member of many scientific societies (among others the Polish Botanical Society, Polish Hydrobiological Society, Poznań Society of Friends of Sciences, Societas Internationalis Limnologiae), however, he has been the most active in the Polish Hydrobiological Society, first acting as the secretary of the Poznań Branch, next as a member of the Board, then as vice-chairmen and from 1992 up to the present – chairman of the Board of the Poznań Branch. For many years he has also been a member of the Main Board of the PHS. Prof. Kraska has also been a member of many Scientific Boards and Committees. Apart from the Scientific Board of his mother Faculty of Biology in Adam Mickiewicz University, he has also been a member of the Scientific Board of the Drawieński National Park (in which he still sits), of the Bory Tucholskie National Park, of the Research Center for Agricultural and Forest Environment of the Polish Academy of Sciences, of the Committee of Environment Protection of PAS. For his successes he was rewarded several times by the Rector of Adam Mickiewicz University. In private he is the husband of Urszula (from 1968) and father of a daughter Agnieszka and two sons Jakub and Marcin. Editors
