Since the end of May, researchers from the Hydrobiology Laboratory of the Institute of Biology of the University of Latvia have been researching biological quality elements in the Lake Sauka and six demonstration rivers of the LIFE GOODWATER IP project. In total, the work is taking place in the lake and in 12 river sections – in Mergupe, Zana, Ēda, Slocene, Age and Auce, in order to find out the ecological status of the Lake Sauka and the mentioned rivers.
