			File:MM IMG Miłosz Marciniak.jpg\|'''Miłosz Marciniak, Team Member''':Miłosz Marciniak holds PhD in engineering and technical sciences, specialising in landscape-related issues within spatial management and planning, and a MSc in Physical Geography and Landscape Shaping, with a specialisation in geomorphology. These two pillars of his education underpin his research and practical interests, in which landscape plays a central role—as a natural, spatial, and social system. Focus on landscape ecology and on applying landscape research to spatial planning. In his work, he applies physical geography methods in the context of new land-use development and the preservation of ecological connectivity, with particular emphasis on climatology (including contemporary climate change), hydrology, and soil and ground science. '''Motivation for LOLA''': The Gdańsk Bay area is an exceptionally diverse and ecologically rich landscape system—ranging from sandy dunes and cliffs to river deltas—one that deserves greater recognition and understanding. At the same time, these coastal ecosystems are under strong anthropogenic pressure: some have become embedded in the landscapes of port cities and their surroundings, while others are disappearing irreversibly. These changes occur both subtly and abruptly. I see participation in LOLA – Local Landscape System Labs as an inspiring and important opportunity to capture and communicate these processes and their significance, and to reflect on how they shape the identity of the Gdańsk Bay region, to which I feel particularly connected.

			File:MM IMG Miłosz Marciniak.jpg\|'''Miłosz Marciniak, Team Member''':Miłosz Marciniak holds PhD in engineering and technical sciences, specialising in landscape-related issues within spatial management and planning, and a MSc in Physical Geography and Landscape Shaping, with a specialisation in geomorphology. These two pillars of his education underpin his research and practical interests, in which landscape plays a central role—as a natural, spatial, and social system. Focus on landscape ecology and on applying landscape research to spatial planning. In his work, he applies physical geography methods in the context of new land-use development and the preservation of ecological connectivity, with particular emphasis on climatology (including contemporary climate change), hydrology, and soil and ground science. '''Motivation for LOLA''': The Gdańsk Bay area is an exceptionally diverse and ecologically rich landscape system—ranging from sandy dunes and cliffs to river deltas—one that deserves greater recognition and understanding. At the same time, these coastal ecosystems are under strong anthropogenic pressure: some have become embedded in the landscapes of port cities and their surroundings, while others are disappearing irreversibly. These changes occur both subtly and abruptly. I see participation in LOLA – Local Landscape System Labs as an inspiring and important opportunity to capture and communicate these processes and their significance, and to reflect on how they shape the identity of the Gdańsk Bay region, to which I feel particularly connected.
