Andreas Zitek is currently a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna (BOKU) and a member of the VIRIS Laboratory for Analytical Ecogeochemistry in Tulln. He received his diploma degree in Landscape Architecture and Landscape Management in 1999 and his PhD degree in 2006, both at the Institute of Hydrobiology and Aquatic Ecosystem Management (IHG) at the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences Vienna (BOKU) (AT). In 2008 he completed an additional MSc in Geographical Information Science and Systems at the Paris Lodron University of Salzburg (UNIGIS). His current research activities aim at the application of elemental and isotopic analyses to basic questions in the field of aquatic ecology ('aquatic ecogeochemistry'), with a special focus on the chemical analysis of hard parts of freshwater fish. Another focus of his work is the application of GIS methods for chemical imaging from µm (small compartment) to km (landscape, isoscape) scale. "Elemental and isotopic analysis is able to provide the most basic information about the interrelation between the living and non-living world, why I predict the transdisciplinary research direction of analytical ecogeochemistry a great future!".
