☆ Ill effects of ultraviolet rays on the ecosystem :
❀ The impact of solar UV-B radiation is one potential stress factor that can have a negative impact on the health of certain species within these ecosystems.
❀ Although there is a paucity of data and information regarding the effect of UV-B radiation on total ecosystem structure and function, several recent studies have addressed the effects on various species within each trophic level.
❀ Climate change, acid deposition, and changes in other anthropogenic stressors such as pollutants alter UV exposure levels in inland and coastal marine waters.
❀ The negative impacts of exposure to UV-B radiation on primary producers, including effects on cyanobacteria, phytoplankton, macroalgae and aquatic plants.
❀ UV-B radiation is an environmental stressor for many aquatic consumers, including zooplankton, crustaceans, amphibians, fish, and corals.
❀ Interactive effects of UV radiation with changes in other stressors, including climate change and pollutants, are likely to be particularly important.
