We are pleased to announce the publication of Newsletter No. 3 of the Lakes Go Digital project, highlighting the latest achievements and activities from recent months.
This edition explores how smart monitoring technologies are improving our understanding of freshwater ecosystems and supporting evidence-based lake management. It also focuses on ecosystem services – the many often invisible benefits that healthy lakes provide to people, communities and nature every day.
In this issue, you can read about:
- the successful deployment of all six smart monitoring buoys across Latvia and Lithuania;
- the intensive 24-hour calibration campaign carried out in Lake Mastis to validate the monitoring system;
- educational activities at Lake Lukna, where schoolchildren discovered modern environmental science and smart monitoring technologies;
- citizen engagement initiatives that strengthen the connection between researchers, municipalities and local communities;
- the next steps of the project and the continued development of the cross-border monitoring network.
Through science, innovation and international cooperation, Lakes Go Digital is building a real-time monitoring network that supports sustainable freshwater management and helps protect lakes and the valuable ecosystem services they provide for future generations.
