摘要

Climate change is dramatically reshaping the delicate balance of Asia’s freshwater and marine ecosystems, intensifying threats to biodiversity, water quality, and public health. This review explores the profound interconnections between climate change and aquatic environments, highlighting the escalating risks posed by rising temperatures, shifting precipitation patterns, and extreme weather events. The paper delves into the alarming surge in harmful algal blooms, shifts in species distributions, and the increasing prevalence of waterborne diseases, all of which undermine both potable water sources and food security. In addition, the review examines the compounding impact of pollution, which further exacerbates the vulnerability of aquatic ecosystems. As global temperatures rise, the resulting decrease in dissolved oxygen and proliferation of pathogens create hostile environments for aquatic life, while extreme climatic events exacerbate water contamination and scarcity in many regions. Vulnerable communities, heavily reliant on aquatic resources for survival, face a dual challenge of environmental and socioeconomic instability. As Asia’s aquatic ecosystems continue to face unprecedented stress, proactive interventions are essential to safeguard food security, water resources, and public health for future generations.
