Water sampling in Łódź area

24.06.2021 | Author: admin

The water sampling in the area of Łódź presented the fewest possible difficulties. This was mainly because the ECOPOND team from the University of Łódź were ‘at home’ here, perfectly know the area and did not need to organise a separate trip. Moreover, only water samplings were carried out at this location, so there was no need to adjust the schedule to the amphibian sampling dates.

Therefore, the UŁ team was free to schedule sampling in central Poland partly between trips to other regions and partly after returning from Tricity. The lack of time pressure made the task easier.

Also the selection of appropriate ponds proved to be easiest in Łódź area. Similarly to other geographical regions, samples were taken from 12 ponds classified as urban and rural:
