Tomáš Galia is an associate professor in the Department of Physical Geography and Geoecology at the University of Ostrava, Czechia, where he earned his Ph.D. in 2012. His research focuses on various aspects of fluvial geomorphology, including: (i) processes governing large wood recruitment, transport, and storage across different fluvial systems, (ii) bedload transport dynamics and morphological changes in mountain streams, and (iii) fluvial processes in intermittent rivers and ephemeral streams. He was the principal investigator of the Czech Science Foundation-funded project “Biogeomorphic Interactions in Meandering Rivers Across Different Spatiotemporal Scales” (2022–2024) and currently leads the project “Hydrogeomorphological Dynamics in the Face of Climate Change: Impacts of Consecutive Floods on Mediterranean River Channels” (2025–2027), also funded by the Czech Science Foundation. Additionally, he has contributed to several national projects focused on applying fluvial geomorphic knowledge to river corridor management. His publication record includes approximately 60 peer-reviewed articles in impacted journals and reflects extensive international collaboration with researchers from Greece, Poland, Sweden, and Switzerland.
