The experts emphasize that the institute is the national leader and internationally competitive in both fundamental and applied research on Baltic Sea ecosystems, providing high-level scientific expertise essential for the management of complex ecological processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">LHEI demonstrates excellent research quality and efficiency, as evidenced by the fact that 72% of the institute\u2019s publications appear in the world\u2019s most prestigious Q1-level scientific journals. The institute\u2019s scientific impact significantly exceeds global averages, and more than 15% of its research outputs rank among the top 10% most-cited works in their field. The experts particularly highlight LHEI\u2019s leading role in topical areas such as microplastic pollution research, marine spatial planning, and innovative methods for lake restoration using macroalgae cultivation for nutrient uptake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The institute has achieved outstanding results in public outreach and science communication. In 2024 alone, it organized 73 various events, including participation in festivals, exhibitions, and \u201ccitizen science\u201d projects such as \u201cPlastic Pirates\u201d, which help raise public awareness of environmental protection. LHEI scientists play a significant role in shaping national policy by providing data and expertise for the development of national regulations on invasive species and the sustainable use of marine resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The report highlights the institute\u2019s high development potential, noting that it is capable of attracting substantial funding from international projects and commercial services. At the same time, the experts point out the need to continue investing in modern laboratory infrastructure and to strategically develop new research directions. LHEI\u2019s future vision is closely linked to the development of the \u201cblue bioeconomy\u201d and the preservation of Baltic Sea region ecosystems for future generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This evaluation is part of the International Assessment of Scientific Institutions completed in March 2026, which in the field of natural sciences was carried out by an independent expert group led by Professor Krikor Ozanyan in cooperation with the international consultancy company \u201cTechnopolis Group\u201d. The study analyzed the performance of all Latvian scientific institutions, including the Latvian Institute of Hydroecology as one of the six scientific institutes in the natural sciences sector. Based on document analysis and on-site visits, the experts evaluated each institution according to six key criteria: research quality, impact on the scientific field, economic and social impact, as well as the research environment and development potential. This process is important to provide objective, internationally standardized information to policymakers and to help institutions identify areas for improvement, thereby promoting their global competitiveness and growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.izm.gov.lv\/lv\/2025-gada-zinatnisko-instituciju-starptautiskais-novertejums\"><strong>Full Report<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.izm.gov.lv\/lv\/media\/32729\/download?attachment\"><strong>Natural Sciences Evaluation<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column p-con-right is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/lhei.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/zinnov-800-x-640-px.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16975\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lhei.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/zinnov-800-x-640-px.png 800w, https:\/\/lhei.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/zinnov-800-x-640-px-300x240.png 300w, https:\/\/lhei.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/zinnov-800-x-640-px-768x614.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LHEI Recognized as a Leading Research Centre for the Baltic Sea and a Strong Regional Player in International Evaluation<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":16975,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"disabled","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":null,"ast-content-background-meta":null,"pgc_sgb_lightbox_settings":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[326,58,229],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-16987","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-2026-year","category-jaunumi","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 -
