Summary: | The utilization of underwater macroalgal meadows, occurring in post-mining lakes of northern Czechia, for the bioremediation of nutrients and pollutants in aquatic biotopes. The project focuses on implementing ecologically appropriate and economically sustainable methods to preserve water quality in various aquatic biotopes. The project’s aim is to obtain macroalgal strains capable of nutrient and pollutant accumulation from the water and utilize them in the processes of remediation and bioaccumulation. The bioremediation abilities of macroalgae will serve as a valuable basis for the management of existing and newly emerging mining lakes. The focus will be on ensuring the long-term ecological, socio-economic, and recreational value of these exceptional aquatic ecosystems. |
