About the programme
The program is focused on the comprehensive study of processes in aquatic ecosystems, i.e., on the flows of matter, energy, and information between their individual compartments, including catchments. The highly interdisciplinary program interlinks holistic research of fishponds, reservoirs, and lakes with the catchment processes, including involvement in long-term aquatic ecosystem research or applications to water quality management. Special emphasis is placed on the state-of-the-art methods, such as next generation sequencing, stable isotopes, stoichiometry, mesocosm experiments, etc.The program is accredited jointly with the Biology Centre of AS CR in České Budějovice and the Institute of Microbiology AS CR, the Algatech Center in Třeboň
