ESTONIA
The history of the Chair goes back to year 1954 when a small field station of the Estonian Academy of Sciences was established in an abandoned farmhouse on the eastern shore of Lake Võrtsjärv.
Today the Chair of Hydrobiology and Fisheries constitutes a separate part of the Institute of Agriculture and Environment protection of the Estonian University of Life sciences (EULS).
The activity of the Chair can be divided into three directions:
- fundamental research in Estonian waterbodies
- teaching of students and post-graduate students in Tartu University since 1992 and in EULS since 1999,
- applied research (state environmental monitoring, fish management, environment impact assessment, lake restoration, nature protection).
