For taking water samples, apart from expedition participants, we involved local specialists, mostly representatives of regional hydro-chemical laboratories and departments of analytic control (in Orsha, Mohylyov, Rechitza, Svetlogorsk, Pinsk, Mozyr and Homel). Local people helped us to measure water expenses and take samples.
10 women participated in field studies. Laboratory research was carried out by women. We involved 8 women for generalization of results.
