Aquatic ecology is the study of ecosystems found in and around bodies of water, encompassing the relationships between organisms and their aquatic environments across marine, freshwater, and wetland habitats. For plant science, this field is essential for understanding the biology and adaptations of aquatic and semi-aquatic plants, including how macrophytes, algae, and wetland flora contribute to nutrient cycling, oxygen production, and ecosystem stability. Research in aquatic ecology informs conservation efforts for water-dependent plant communities and reveals how changing water conditions drive plant evolution and distribution.
