The field station is a part of the Department of Limnology at the Evolutionary Biology Centre of Uppsala University. It has since its foundation in the 1940s served both as a research station and a Study and course centre. During the early years, activities were mostly restricted to the summer season, but now courses and other activities take place all year round. The Erken laboratory has developed an extensive environmental monitoring program for Lake Erken. Researches also participated in several large EU projects on e.g. effects of climate change on lake ecosystems and automatic monitoring of phytoplankton development.
