Sampling Methods

Hydrological data were collected according to generally accepted methods. Benthic samples were collected with a Petersen grab (small and medium models) and washed through a №19 nylon mesh sieve. Plankton samples were collected by filtering a certain volume of water through an Apstein net made of nylon mesh №68. Samples were fixed with 4% formalin solution, primary processing and species/taxa identification were carried out in laboratory conditions. Specimens were mounted on microscopic slides and identified using taxonomic keys.
