Lecture "Hydrobiology" provides an basic overview of freshwater ecosystems from the point of their biology and biotic relationships, physico-chemical characteristics, material and energy fluxes and consequences of anthropogenic impacts.
At the end of the course the student is expected to: - have thorough understanding of the function various freshwater bodies; - understand basic physicochemical characteristics and difference between standing and running waters - understand different communities inhabiting water biotopes as well as their adaptations to specific conditions of particular biotope - be able to read and evaluate critically research papers written in English
