Aeromicrobiology

Aeromicrobiology is the study of live bacteria that are floating in the atmosphere. These bacteria are referred to as bioaerosols. There are still lots of microorganisms in the atmosphere, despite the fact that there are many fewer than in the oceans and soil. The likelihood of widespread sickness brought on by these bacteria rises when they are suspended in the air column because they can move enormous distances with the help of wind and precipitation. These aerosols are significant ecologically because they have been connected to illness in humans, animals, and plants. Bacteria are typically floating in clouds, where they can perform chemical transformations and potentially trigger precipitation.
