Aquatic Chemistry

Aquatic chemistry is the study of the chemical composition and processes occurring in water environments like lakes, rivers, oceans, and groundwater. It examines how elements and compounds dissolve, react, and interact within these waters, influencing water quality, ecosystems, and the environment. This field helps us understand phenomena such as pH balance, nutrient cycles, pollution, and how contaminants spread or change over time. By understanding aquatic chemistry, scientists can better manage water resources, protect aquatic life, and address environmental issues related to water quality and contamination.
