Long-term dynamics of hydrobiont communities in Kenon Lake

Abstract Long-term researches of Kenon Lake, that exploited the lake as a cooling reservoir of the Chita thermoelectric plant-1, have revealed that composition of the dominating system of hydrobiont and fish communities of the lake has no significant variations. Maintenance of the lake level at the expense of pumping water from Ingoda River leads to flatness of processes taking place in the ecosystem and possibilities for the ecosystem state regulation.
