ABSTRACT

The best tools for environmental monitoring are bioindicator organisms which offers an insight into the health and quality of the ecosystem. Their presence, absence, biological responses act as the evidence to assess the environmental conditions such as pollution levels, ecological disturbances and so on. This report gives an elaborate information on highlighting the roles of bioindicator organism in assessing the quality of air, water and soil. Examples such as lichens, diatoms, amphibians illustrate their application in detection of pollution and monitoring the environmental changes. These bioindicators offer numerous advantages over other chemical analysis, including cost-effectiveness and ecological relevance. Recent advances in molecular techniques and community-based monitoring increases the scope and accuracy of the studies on bioindicator organisms. This review speaks about the significance of bioindicators in sustainable management of the environment and calls for broader integration in ecological assessment. Keywords: Bioindicators, environmental monitoring, pollution assessment, ecological assessment
