Freshwater Ecology
Freshwater Ecology is the study of the relationships between organisms and their environment within freshwater ecosystems such as rivers, lakes, ponds, and wetlands. It examines the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of freshwater habitats, as well as the interactions between different species of plants, animals, and microorganisms that inhabit these environments. Researchers in this field investigate topics such as nutrient cycling, food webs, species diversity, and the impacts of human activities on freshwater ecosystems.
