Study of trophic interactions in shallow lakes, estimating potential for lake restoration by biomanipulation and evaluation of restoration measures. Case studies involve two ponds in the nature reserve Blankaart (Diksmuide), the 22 ha Kraenepoel pond (Aalter) and a set of shallow ponds in the nature reserve De Maten (Genk)
