The Research Project dataverse contains additional dataverses that organise the completed and ongoing research projects of the Institute on the complete study of all groups of organisms in the lake, its biodiversity, community dynamics, physical and chemical state, primary production, the relationship between lower and higher organisms, external, anthropogenic and climate change impacts, and the role of alien species. The mesocosm system set up in the Institute's park allows experimental studies of all these variables to be carried out and stored in additional dataverses.
