The mesocosm of Tropical Aquatic Ecology consist of 80 independents tanks (500L each) mimicking small shallow lake, and able to control of water volume, individual filling and drainage. The mesocosm are situated near a shallow oligotrophic reservoir (the water can be used in mesocosm).
The mesocosm of Tropical Aquatic Ecology at State University of Goiás was constructed with financial support of National Institutes of Science and Technology (INCT) in Ecology, Evolution and Biodiversity Conservation (EECBIO), Brazilian National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq), Goiás State’s of Research Foundation (FAPEG), and scholarship from INCT EECBio, CNPq, CAPES and Brazilian Network on Global Climate Change Research (Rede CLIMA).

Microbiote (phytoplankton, zooplankton, 16S rRNA and 18S rRNA)
Ecology of tropical shallow lakes and limnology
Microscopes, water sensors (e.g. pH, temperature, oxygen, turbidity, chlorophyll-a), nutrients analysis (partner laboratories).
