His research is focused on the conditions and processes of morphogenesis of surface and underground karst forms. He has participated in numerous speleological surveys and expeditions in Croatia and also in Spain, Mexico, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Romania, Lebanon and Iran. He has participated in numerous scientific projects, the most important of which are: Geomorphological cartography of the Republic of Croatia, Geomorphological and geoecological survey of karst in the Republic of Croatia, Research on karst denudation and the protection of karst landscapes, Research of regional environmental changes at karst localities, with special emphasis on recent processes, and many others.

He is editor-in-chief of the scientific journal Acta Geographica Croatica as well as a member of the editorial board of the scientific journal Land, and a member of the editorial board of the professional journal Subterranea Croatica.

At the Department of Geography, Faculty of Science, he teaches the courses Karst geomorphology and hydrography, Applied geomorphology, Speleology and Field course in physical geography.

He is a member of the Working Group for topography and cartography of the International Union of Speleologists (UIS) and Tectonic Geomorphology Working Group of the International Association of Geomorphologists (IAG). He is a member of numerous professional organisations. From 2010 – 2013, he was president of the Croatian Speleological Association and 2019 – 2023 president of the Croatian Geomorphological Society (CGS).
