Idzi Drzycimski

Idzi Drzycimski is a astronomy topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Idzi Drzycimski rather than just read about it. In short: Idzi Drzycimski (5 December 1933 – 25 October 2025) was a Polish biologist and academic who was a professor of geographical sciences in the discipline of oceanology, with a specialisation in marine ecology and biology. He was also rector of the Agricultural University in Szczecin from 1975 to 1981.

Key takeaways

Idzi Drzycimski belongs to astronomy; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Idzi Drzycimski to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.

Reference excerpt

Idzi Drzycimski (5 December 1933 – 25 October 2025) was a Polish biologist and academic who was a professor of geographical sciences in the discipline of oceanology, with a specialisation in marine ecology and biology. He was also rector of the Agricultural University in Szczecin from 1975 to 1981.

Life and career After finishing Primary School in Klonowo in 1947 and passing Matura at the General Secondary School in Tuchola in 1952, Drzycimski moved to Odesa to study Biology with a speciality in Hydrobiology at the Odesa I. I. Mechnykov National University. After finishing his studies in 1957, Drzycimski worked at the Sea Fishers Institute in Gdynia in the Department of Oceanography headed by Professor Kazimierz Demel, and then at the Department of Oceanography and Marine Biology at the Agricultural and Technical University in Olsztyn at the Faculty of Fishers. Since 1958 he was a member of PZPR. In 1963, Drzycimski obtained a doctoral degree in natural sciences, and in 1969 Drzycimski received his Habilitation. In 1968, he moved to Szczecin alongside a part of the Faculty to establish the Faculty of Sea Fishers. Drzycimski then received his academic title of associate professor in 1975. Drzycimski would then be the Rector of the Agricultural University in Szczecin in two terms, 1975–78 and 1978–81. He described 11 new species and 3 new genera of marine crustaceans, which became permanent entries in the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature. He supervised 8 doctoral students and was the supervisor of the honorary doctorate of Kenneth Sherman from the US (1989). In 2001 he was awarded the Medal of Professor Kazimierz Demela. Drzycimski was author to over 100 publications, most famously Harpacticoida (Copepoda) of the Polish coastal waters of the Baltic Sea in 1974. Drzycimski died on 25 October 2025, at the age of 91. He was buried at the Municipal Cemetery in Ińsko, on 29 October.

Described animal species

New genera of marine crustaceans Miersia carinthiaca whose name comes from the Latin name of Lake Wörthersee in Carinthia (Kärnten). Miersia orientalis whose name means "eastern". Miersia tridentata whose name refers to its three-pronged shape (tridente).

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Idzi Drzycimski

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Idzi Drzycimski claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In astronomy, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Idzi Drzycimski before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Idzi Drzycimski ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Idzi Drzycimski

In research: Idzi Drzycimski appears in astronomy research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Idzi Drzycimski in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Idzi Drzycimski is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1933 births, 2025 deaths, Knights of the Order of Polonia Restituta, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Idzi Drzycimski outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
