Sylabus -
1. Water cycle in the biosphere and distribution of water on the planet Earth Hydrological cycle; elementary physical and chemical properties of water; origin of lakes, trophic status and zonation of lakes, running waters.
2. Distribution of light and temperature, distribution of oxygen, turbidity, inorganic carbon and pH.
3. Biogenic elements in waters – cycle of C, N, P
4. Communities of stagnant waters - phytoplankton Composition of the community, size distribution. Stokes rule, Redfield ratio. Seasonal succesion, plankton paradox.
5. Communities of stagnant waters – zooplankton Spatial structure of stagnat waters, communities, food webs, microbial loop. Major zooplankton groups. Top-down, bottom-up effect, PEG model.
6. Bacterioplankton and detritus of stagnant waters, forms of carbon in waters.
7. Littoral and march communities, macrophytes, benthos, and fish of stagnant waters.
8. Running waters – characteristics Speed of currents, flow regime, transport of substances. River ecosystem, river continuum concept, erosion.
9. Running waters - communities
10. Protection of waters Water frame directive (WFD), impact of climatic changes on running waters.
11. Acidification Anthropogenic acidification, pH of rain and lake waters. Impact of S and N deposition on soil and water ecosystems. Recovery from acidification.
12. Eutrophication Nutrients responsible for eutrophication and their sources. Impact on waters.
