What does an earthquake do to a freshwater ecosystem?
Earthquakes generally have minimal effects on a freshwater ecosystem. Because fault lines do not tend to go through a freshwater ecosystem, the quakes cannot to harm directly to the organisms. Some damage that could be a result of a quake would be trees falling down, some organisms falling down and loosing their balance, ect. As you can see, it is not exactly a bad problems all the freshwater organisms have to worry about. And naturally, it would depend on where the ecosystem is. But overall, the earthquake really doesn't play a factor into the ecosystem as a whole.
