Abstract

An assessment of the ecological state of the Voghji River and its catchment basin according to chemical and biological indicators in the period 2018–2019. New taxa were discovered in phytoplankton, when contaminated with heavy metals and organic substances. A decrease in community stability and an increase in the role of Сyanoprokaryotes and green algae in plankton were observed, which can be used for phytoremediation of the degraded ecosystem of the Voghji River.
