This review presents an integrated analysis of the physico-chemical parameters and planktonic diversity of Malsisar Dam, focusing on correlations that shape freshwater ecosystem function and sustainability. Sampling from June 2023 to November 2024 identified strong seasonal variations in water parameters and planktonic populations. The study provides baseline metrics essential for ongoing ecological monitoring and sustainable water management in Rajasthan’s semi-arid landscape. Nestled within Rajasthan’s semi-arid landscape, Malsisar Dam emerges not only as a vital freshwater resource for Jhunjhunun district but as a living laboratory where the geneses of aquatic health and sustainability unfold. This inventive review interlaces the physico-chemical tapestry—temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, nutrient profiles and the dynamic ballet of planktonic communities to decode the ecological pulse of the reservoir. Through a systematic, season-wise and month wise sampling. the study reveals a striking interplay: alkaline waters, moderate nutrient enrichment, and variable thermal regimes sculpt microscale habitats, fostering a diverse planktonic assemblage led by rotifers and arthropods. The limnological lens employed not only quantifies water quality, electrical conductivity, TDS, ions and biotic indices, but also illuminates how climatic cycles, monsoon pulses, and anthropogenic inputs modulate biodiversity and underlying biogeochemical fluxes. Plankton density peaks align with post-monsoon nutrient surges, mapping subtle ecological recovery and resilience patterns. Comparative analyses with other desert-region reservoirs underscore Malsisar’s intrinsic uniqueness and adaptive potential. Ultimately, this review elevates Malsisar Dam as a sentinel site: where physico-chemical narratives and planktonic signals intertwine to forecast ecosystem stability and water resource futures. The findings build a foundation for regionally tailored conservation strategies, positioning limnology as an indispensable guide for sustaining life and livelihoods in semi-arid India.
