Alabama’s biodiversity is due in part to the state's many river systems, diverse and ancient geology allowing ample time for speciation, and its subtropical/temperate climate and resulting long growing season. Examining and monitoring this diversity offers Survey biologists the opportunity to assess important factors that affect the quality of our water resources.
