Course Objectives/Goals

Knowledge of the fundamental structure and function of rivers and lakes focusing on the hydromorphological, chemical and biological elements required by the Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC) for the evaluation and monitoring of the ecological status of freshwaters. After the successful completion of the course, the student will have obtained skills as the use of field polymeters, realise field sampling, perform species identification of phytoplankton, zooplankton and macroinvertebrate organisms, use of biotic indices, use of specialised software (for statistical analyses), use of bibliography, analysing, writing and presenting relative subjects and working individually or in groups.
