PRIYAN CIVIL STRUCTURAL ENGG DEPT AQUATIC  ECOSYSTEM AQUATIC ECOSYSTEM An aquatic ecosystem is an ecosystem in a body of water. Communities of organisms that are dependent on each other and on their environment live in aquatic ecosystems. The two main types of aquatic ecosystems are as given below. (1) Marine Ecosystems (2) Fresh Water Ecosystems AQUATIC ECOSYSTEM FRESH WATER ECOSYSTEM MARINE ECOSYSTEM RIVER POND LAKE OCEAN ESTUARINE MARINE ECOSYSTEM FRESH WATER ECOSYSTEM Fresh water ECOSYSTEM Freshwater is defined as having a low salt concentration—usually less than 1% Plants and animals in freshwater regions are adjusted to the low salt content and would not be able to survive in areas of high salt concentration ( i.e, ocean ) What are Aquatic FRESH WATER Ecosystems? RIVER ECOSYSTEM STREAM ECOSYSTEM LAKE ECOSYSTEM POND ECOSYSTEM POND ecosystem It is a self sufficient and self regulating ecosystem. Location , size and depth of a pond influence the biology of the pond ecosystem. A pond is a small body of fresh or salt water that is surrounded by land. The water is mostly still and some ponds freeze in winter or dry up during drier weather. COMPONENTS OF POND ECOSYSTEM ABIOTIC COMPONENTS : The components are temperature, light, water, several inorganic, organic (C,H,O,N), carbohydrates, proteins lipids. The amount of minerals present at any time in the physical environment of the pond is known as standing state. BIOTIC COMPONENTS : (1) PRODUCERS : Macrophytes, Green plants may be submerged, free floating Amphibious plants (e.g. Ceratophyli
