Phytoplankton Dynamics In Relation To Physico Chemical Parameters of Ropar Wetland Punjab

Abstract

Wetlands are distinct ecosystems which remain saturated with water, either seasonally or newlinepermanently. Wetlands are also regarded as ecotones, providing a zone between the two newlinehabitats i.e. dry land and water bodies. These are naturally occurring or manmade and as newlinefreshwater, brackish or saline in natureon every continent.
