The aim of this course is to present standards for ecologically successful aquatic restoration. Students will learn about differences in functioning natural and transformed freshwater ecosystems, water quality assessment using trophy indicators, habitat quality assessment using River Habitat Survey (RHS) and River Macrophyte Index (RMI).

We focus on the best practices for freshwater restoration on the example of projects implemented in Europe. The short-term and long-term effect of aquatic restorations will be analysed.
