Recent focus on aquatic ecosystems has underscored the increasing dangers posed by human activities and climate change, resulting in intensified efforts to comprehend the dynamics of these systems and the risks linked to their alteration. The pressures on freshwater ecosystems are unprecedented and increasing. Contemporary human activities have resulted in catastrophic reductions in freshwater biodiversity, environmental degradation, and a diminishing gene pool. Aquatic biodiversity is declining as a consequence of increased harvest pressures, pollution, habitat alteration, introduction of non-native species, and climate change. Safeguarding and rehabilitating these ecosystems are not merely an environmental obligation but also crucial for the preservation of life on Earth.
