The paper assesses the ecological state of the Cheboksary reservoir based on the criteria of the total abundance, biomass, and species diversity of phytoplankton, zooplankton, and benthos. During the study period, no significant changes in the indicators of the development of algocenoses, their distribution over the water area of the reservoir were noted. The average phytoplankton biomass for the reservoir turned out to be in the dynamic norm, the trophic status was assessed as eutrophic; The re
