1. Field sampling. Determination of basic physical and chemical parameters of water. Measurement of transparency, temperature, specific conductivity, pH, and analysis of concentration of dissolved gasses (oxygen and CO2) in situ and in lab.
2. Analytical methods fro determination of major ions. Practice on both top analytical instruments (ion chromatographer, TC/TN analyzer, UV spectrophotometer) and traditional methods (spectrophotometry, ISE). Principles of GLP (good analytical practice), and quality control (ion balance, internal lab standards).
3. Field excursion into experimental catchment (Litavka, Brdy Mountains).
4. Demonstration of various types of sampling equipment.
5. Field sampling for bacteria, phytoplankton, zooplankton and benthos in both running and standing waters, microscopic determination of numbers and biomass, dry weight, total carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus, and chlorophyll a (spectrophotometer and fluorometer) and total particle volume using Coulter Counter.
6. Field excursion at experimental lake.
