Microbial Plankton

Microbial Plankton is a collective ecological assemblage within aquatic systems comprising free-living, suspended microorganisms—primarily bacteria, archaea, protists, and microscopic fungi—that inhabit the water column and play foundational roles in biogeochemical cycling and food web dynamics through their autotrophic, heterotrophic, or mixotrophic metabolic activities.
