Expanding the functions of a Floating Laboratory in the field of hydrological and ichthyological work for industrial exploration of Aquatic Biological Resources

As part of the expansion of the range of scientific work, as well as improving the quality of practical and laboratory work carried out by the Department of “Operation of Water Transport and Industrial Fisheries”, a floating laboratory was created on the basis of a small vessel to study the impact of ships on the environmental situation. The base, depending on the tasks that arise, is constantly being retrofitted with the necessary equipment, facilities and fixtures. This article discusses the modernization of the floating laboratory, aimed at teaching and scientific research of students in the field of industrial fisheries.
