Ключевые слова:
bioindicators, hydrobiology, water quality, aquatic ecosystems, environmental monitoringАннотация
This article provides a comprehensive analysis of the role and significance of bioindicator organisms in hydrobiological monitoring. It explores how aquatic organisms such as algae, macroinvertebrates, and fish reflect the ecological condition of freshwater ecosystems. Moreover, the paper highlights the importance of bioindicators in detecting pollution, assessing water quality, and guiding environmental management decisions.
