National:

As a member of the researchers team from the Department of Taxonomy, Ecology and Natural Protection, in Institute of Biology, Romanian Academy, I participated at the following projects:
"The monotoring of the influence of the dumps on some biocenotical components of the affected ecosystems from the area with hydro-electrical improvement Raul Mare -Retezat" - from 1999-till now.
• Trophycal structure and food sources for the edaphic fauna from some beech forests from Bucegi massif - 1999.
• Identification of the representative types of shrubs in the sector with fields and hills of Prahova river and of the danubian sector of the Giurgiu -1999.
• Trophycal structure and food sources for the edaphic fauna from some fir-beech forests from the superior basin of the Prahova river - 2000.
• Identification of the biologycal structure and productivity of the natural shrubs from the basins of low rivers of Danube - 1999-2002
• "Structural identification of the main biocenotical components and natural abundance of the N15 in some beech forests from Bucegi Massif" - 1999-2002
• "The knowledge and management of the biological diversity from Romania" - 2002-2006
• "The actual stage, the prognosis and monitoring of the impact of the hydro- electrical intervetion from Ciurila and Râuşor zone, in the secondary adduction from Râul Mare Retezat, for the environmental protection"- 2002-2006.
• "Determination of the biocenotical structure characteristically to the low basin of the Ialomita river"-grant financed by ANSTI, 2000-2001
• "Caracterization of the taxonomical diversity of the edaphical mites (Acari: Mesostigmata; Oribatida) from some ecosystems with Picea abies and Fagus sylvatica from Bucegi massif", GAR, 2003-2005
• "Biodiversity of the alluvial shrubs ecosystems", 2002-2006.
• « The improvement of the Danube bottom land. The improvement of the Insulei Mari a Brãilei. Analise and characterization of the present stage of the biodiversity (flora, fauna, vegetation, antropical factors), 2005-2006, Program AGRAL PRIORITARE
• "Researches regarding the biodiversity of the forestry ecosystems with Querqus sp. and Carpinus sp. from Cîmpia Românã", 2005-2007;
• "Biodiversity of the hills shrubs", 2005-2007;
• "Scientifically and operational fundamentation of the management of the socio-ecological landscapes", CNCSIS, 2005-2007;
• "Evaluation of the impact of the construction of the mobile-car on the biodiversity in National Park Bucegi, between 1400 m - 2000 m altitudine½, 2005.
• Evaluation of the impact of the construction of the mobile-car on the biodiversity in National Park Bucegi, between 998 m - 1400 m altitudine½, 2005.

International:

• "Nicolas" -at University Bucharest, faculty of Biology, project financed by the European Community, 1998-2000;
• "The management of the biodiversity conservation in Romania", financed by World Bank, as volunteer in Natural Park Piatra Craiului - 2000-2002.
• ½ The structure of the mites populations (Acari-Gamasida) from forestry ecosystems from Romania and Poland", project financed by Romanian Academy and Polish Academy of Science, 2000-2005.
• LIFE AIR-AWARE: AIR Pollution ImpAct Surveillance and WArning System for URban Environment - Utilization as bioindicators of plants and animals sensible to the air borne pollution, financed by the European Community, 2005-2008.

The personal studied aspects in these projects:
- the structure and dynamics of the mites fauna (Acari, Mesostigmata) from different forestry ecosystems.
-prevailing, extraction and identification of the gamasid fauna from the studied ecosystems;
-realization of the lists with species and statistical prelucration of the data, from each studied ecosystems;
-calculation and analization of the qualitative parameters (relative abundance, frequency , constancy, dominance, variation coefficient, specifically diversity (index Shannon-Wiener), similarity (index Jaccard), spatial distribution (index Morisita), simple correlations, multiple correlations, productivity).
- calculation and analization of the quantitative parameters (numerical abundances, numerical density and biomass).
