Tasks:
IZ-SAS is responsible with CU-Prague and HBSC-ASCR, for undertaking all field
sampling at the Classification and Validation lakes in the
Slovakian Tatra Mountains (30-50 lakes); for the analysis of
epipelic and sediment diatoms; analyses from short core samples for
Chironomids; littoral and profundal invertebrates; zooplankton;
phytoplankton and assessment of trophic food webs.
