Scientists monitor the construction zone of the nuclear power plant
Russia and Egypt have signed an agreement in which scientists of TSU’s Biological Institute will monitor the Mediterranean Sea in the area of construction of the first Egyptian nuclear power plant “El-Dabaa”. The researchers will assess the man-made load on the sea ecosystems, so that understanding the load will help to make operational decisions for maintaining the natural balance in the construction zone of a large technical facility.
In mid-September, Biological Institute scientists completed another part of research that was conducted in the Mediterranean Sea near the atomic power station construction zone. A group of six people, including experts in ichthyology and hydrobiology, conducted an analysis of samples taken at sites agreed with the customer. Selection of the hydrobiological material was carried out by the diving club SKAT, which simultaneously conducted underwater photography and video shooting.
