RESEARCH IS FOCUSSED AT THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN VARIOUS TROPHIC LEVELS, IN ORDER TO USE BIOMANIPULATION AS A WATER MANAGEMENT TOOL. BIOMANIPULATION IS DEFINED HERE AS SCIENTIFICALLY ORIENTED MANAGEMENT OF THE INTERNAL STRUCTURE OF THE AQUATIC ECOSYSTEM, MAINLY ITS BIOLOGICAL COMPONENTS, IN ORDER TO PRODUCE DESIRED CONDITIONS IN AQUATIC ENVIRONMENTS.
