Aquatic Biomass refers to the diverse array of living organisms within aquatic ecosystems that serve as a valuable and renewable resource for various human needs. Encompassing both freshwater and marine environments, aquatic biomass comprises a rich tapestry of organisms, including microalgae, macroalgae, aquatic plants, plankton, and various aquatic organisms. At the heart of this ecosystem lies a dynamic interplay of biological processes, as these organisms undergo photosynthesis, nutrient cycling, and other metabolic activities crucial for sustaining life underwater. The significance of aquatic biomass extends far beyond its ecological role, as it represents a promising frontier in the quest for sustainable resources. Microalgae, for instance, are harnessed for their high lipid content, offering a potential source of biofuels that could alleviate the global demand for fossil fuels. Macroalgae, commonly known as seaweed, find applications in food, pharmaceuticals, and even bio-based materials. The cultivation of aquatic biomass also presents opportunities for carbon sequestration, contributing to climate change mitigation efforts. Furthermore, the diverse genetic makeup of aquatic organisms holds promise for biotechnological advancements and the development of novel pharmaceuticals. However, the sustainable exploitation of aquatic biomass requires careful management to prevent overharvesting and environmental degradation. As the world faces increasing challenges related to food security, renewable energy, and environmental sustainability, the exploration and responsible utilization of aquatic biomass emerge as a critical avenue for meeting these multifaceted needs in a rapidly evolving global landscape.
