Every year, a group of students of the Faculty of Biology at the Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań, chaired by Dr. Ryszard Piotrowicz, visits the Słowiński National Park during field classes. One of the topics discussed during the expedition are the water-crowfoot rivers, therefore also this year classes in the Łupawa river valley could not be missed.
On June 19, 2019, field activities began with a visit to a wooden bridge in Smołdzino. Although this is not the area of the Słowiński National Park yet, it is from this walking crossing over the Łupawa that you can see the water-crowfoots best. That is why, every year, the story about the nature of the water-crowfoot rivers begins, which, in botanical terms, the coordinator of the classes talks about, while we introduce hydrotechnical issues.
The schedule is always tight, so this year we have finished the students' visit near the Hydroelectric Power Plant in Smołdzin, where the construction of a fish pass has been planned. Here, in full sun, we talked about the parameters of the planned building and a bit about the aquatic organisms for which the fish pass is being built.
This year, each student also received a guidebook "Selected issues of the protection of species and habitats of fish and lampreys in the Słowiński National Park" published as part of the LIFENaturaSlowinskaPL project.
Thank you for your visit and we invite you next year.
