Aquatic Biologist


Aquatic biologists study micro-organisms, plants, and animals living in water; specifically with living organisms that are found in bodies of water such as lakes, ponds, marshes, oceans and other aquatic regions. They study the environmental impact of industry and human expansion on the living organisms in the water as well as provide recommendations for laws, policies and guidelines for future development and expansions.

Aquatic biologists are also very important in reclamation efforts for wetlands as well as assisting in natural disasters that involve water areas. They may work either in the private sector as consultants or researchers or they may work within government agencies. They may also work for environmental protection agencies that are either privately funded or working though grants from the government. There are also aquatic biologists that work as managers or administrators within private and public sector industries and agencies.

There are several different types of aquatic biologists. Limnologists study fresh water plants and animals whereas marine biologists specialize in salt-water organisms. Aqua culturist’s research and study the production of water based organisms for human use.
