Planktology is the scientific study of plankton, which includes a vast array of microscopic organisms that drift in the water column of oceans, seas, and other bodies of water. Plankton can be broadly classified into two main categories: phytoplankton, which are plant-like organisms (primarily algae that perform photosynthesis), and zooplankton, which are small animals, including protozoa and tiny crustaceans.
