Abstract

Plankton plays a vital role in the ecological dynamics and nutrient cycling of aquatic ecosystems. This research paper aims to investigate the diversity of plankton and their seasonal variation in density in the Yamuna River, located in the Auraiya District of Uttar Pradesh, India. Water samples were collected monthly from multiple sampling stations along the river course for one year. The collected samples were then examined to identify and quantify plankton species using standard protocols. The results revealed significant seasonal variations in the density and composition of planktonic organisms. This study contributes to our understanding of the ecological dynamics of the Yamuna River and emphasizes the importance of monitoring plankton populations for effective river management and conservation strategies.
