Learning about River Ecosystem

Learn and Keep Your River Ecosystem Well

"This river ecosystem is said to be an attractive ecosystem. There are two reasons why this river ecosystem is interesting, namely because it has a variety of diverse biota life and also has physical chemical changes that can be influenced by various factors.

This river ecosystem has a characteristic. The characteristic of this river ecosystem is that there is a unidirectional flow of water that allows physical and chemical changes in it to take place continuously. In addition to these characteristics, we can also find various characteristics or characteristics possessed by this river ecosystem. Some of the main characteristics or characteristics possessed by river ecosystems include:

The existence of water that continues to flow from upstream to downstream. There are variations in physical and chemical conditions at very high water flow rates.

There are changes in physical conditions as well as chemistry that occur continuously.

It is inhabited by various kinds of plants and also animals that have adapted to the conditions of water flow.

River Ecosystem Components

As we all know that ecosystem is an interaction that involves living things with their environment (read: environmental functions for humans). This means that the ecosystem includes the interaction of biotic components and also abiotic components. These biotic and abiotic components are components that are owned by all types of ecosystems, including this river ecosystem. The components owned by the river ecosystem are as follows:

Biotic component. Biotic components are components consisting of living things, both plants and animals. River ecosystems have many biotic components, such as plants (for example: algae, wild angkung, water hyacinth, moss, etc.), animals (for example: snails, snails, mussels, shellfish, shrimp, snakes, insects, etc.) phytoplankton, zooplankton and other organisms.

Abiotic component. in contrast to the biotic component, this abiotic component is an ecosystem component in the form of inanimate objects. However, even though these objects do not live, the existence of these objects still influences the survival of the biotic components in the ecosystem. Some abiotic components that are in the river ecosystem include: rocks (read: types of rocks), temperature, sunlight, humidity (read: how to preserve air), and so forth."
