On October 15th and November 12th, researchers from the institutes of Northern Water Problems and Biology of KarRC RAS gave lectures on the Republic of Karelia water resources for teachers from Petrozavodsk. The workshop provided teachers of biology, chemistry and geography and tutors with relevant information on current water research and situation in Karelia. This information will be used in activities with schoolchildren.
At these events, Senior Researcher at the NWPI KarRC RAS Geography and Hydrology Laboratory A. Litvinenko gave a detailed presentation of the hydrographic network of Karelia, Senior Researcher at the NWPI Hydrochemistry and Hydrogeology Laboratory G. Borodulina told about groundwater research in Karelia. Head of the IB KarRC RAS Mire Ecosystem Laboratory S. Kutenkov described the features of wetlands in Karelia and Russia. Ì. Zobkov, Head of NWPI Hydrochemistry and Hydrogeology Laboratory, made a presentation about research into the effect of plastics and microplastics on water bodies. The lectures on November 12th were attended also by students of the Petrozavodsk University majoring in Ecology and Management of Natural Resources.
In spring 2020, KarRC RAS experts involved in the project will contribute to the making of educational videos within the project “Education for sustainable water use”.
This project is implemented under the priority “Clean and comfortable region to live” of the Karelia CBC Programme 2014-2020. Karelia Cross-border Cooperation Programme is financed by the European Union, Finland and Russia.
