Seasonal changes in zooplankton reveal key to healthy water bodies.

Water Quality

The study looked at how sewage pollution affects the zooplankton community in the Sirsiya River in India. Zooplankton are tiny animals that float in water and are important food sources for fish. The researchers found 18 different types of zooplankton in the river, with rotifers being the most abundant. Changes in water quality can impact the abundance and diversity of zooplankton, which can indicate the health of the aquatic ecosystem.
