Assessment of physical properties and pH of selected surface waters of the northern part of Western Siberia
One of the undisputed natural resources of Western Siberia is a countless number of surface waters. They can be found in the form of all sorts of lakes from the smallest ther-mokarst ones of a surface area of only 1m through large post-glacial lakes up to high-mountain lakes. To that large mires are to be added, acknowledged as the largest in the world. Other equally impressive forms of surface waters are countless streams and rivers with the Ob-river at the head, the eighth largest river of the world. All of that together is a tremendous challenge for research concerning ecology of these waters as only a few of them and only to a very limited degree have been the subject of scientific research.
