Aquatic Biology

Aquatic biology is the study of organisms that live in water, including oceans, rivers, lakes, and wetlands. It encompasses various fields, such as marine biology, which focuses on ocean life, and freshwater biology, which examines life in rivers and lakes. This branch of biology explores ecosystems, species interactions, and the impact of environmental changes on aquatic habitats. Aquatic biologists study everything from microscopic algae to large marine mammals, helping us understand biodiversity, ecological balance, and the health of water bodies, which is vital for both nature and human activity.
