Prerequisites: botany, zoology, hydrobiology
Course content: Geomorphological conditions of anthropogenic interference with the progress and development of plants, environmental assessment of the watercourse and reservoir, to assess the "closeness nature" of the aquatic environment, creating sheets for field work, analysis and interpretation of documentation, selection of appropriate methods of shaping the regulatory route of the river, and longitudinal profile trough cross the stream. Strengthening and belts boundary floodplains, forming streams in a manner consistent with the nature, addressing the needs of plants and aquatic animals (especially fish fauna), natural methods to prevent flooding. Restoration litoral area lakes, methods of counteracting eutrophication of water reservoirs, ecotechnological methods recovery of lakes.

Assessment methods: Pass classes 2 times a semester written tests to assess the current rating (based on household tasks and oral expression) progress and activity. The presence of the exercises is compulsory, the student may have only one unauthorized absence. In the case of excused absences the student is required to pass the relevant part of the material. Completion of exercises based on the average ratings. Completion of the course: students with a valid credit exercises at the end of the semester to present y
