[A conceptual mathematical model of aquatic communities in lakes Naroch and Myastro (Belarus)].

A conceptual mathematical model of fish and zooplankton (rotifer) populations inhabiting the lakes Naroch and Myastro has been developed and studied. The parametrization of the model was carried out having regard to the field observation data. The population dynamics was simulated taking into account that the lakes Naroch and Myastro are coupled with each other by a channel. It was shown that both the population coupling and trophic interactions result in regular and irregular oscillations of the population size.
