Project co-funded by European Union funds (ERDF). THE AUTHORS VIKTOR GYÖRGY OROSZI is a geographer and environmentalist (majored in fluvial geomorphology, GIS and landscape ecology at the University of Szeged). He got his PhD in earth sciences in 2010 at the University of Szeged. In his thesis he investigated the floodplain development of the River Maros since the mid- 19th century. Starting his career he worked for the NGO network called Danube Environmental Forum in 2007- 2008 as a project coordinator, later joined a private surveying company. Between 2012-2016 he became the assistant professor of the University of Pécs.
