Diatom Training video - Part I field work

This video was realised with the financial support of the European Union in the framework of the European Union Water Initiative Plus (EUWI+).
The introduction of diatoms (phytobenthos) as a biological quality element for ecological status assessment is an important next step to improve biological monitoring.
The two diatom training video parts focus on 1) field sampling (the above video) and 2) sample treatment in the lab, which you can find here: • Diatom Training video....
Questions are collected until the end of November 2020, your feedback is highly appreciated!
