Freshwater Science
Freshwater Science is the study of the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of freshwater ecosystems, including rivers, lakes, ponds, and wetlands. Researchers in this field examine the interactions between organisms and their environment, water quality, nutrient cycling, and the impact of human activities on freshwater systems. Through fieldwork, laboratory analysis, and modeling, scientists aim to better understand and protect these vital resources for the benefit of both ecosystems and human society.
