Abstract An ecosystem is a community of living organism in association with the nonliving components of their environment. Salt pan is one of the ecosystems with hypersaline extreme environment. It can be natural as well as man-made. Quality and quantity of salt depends on physico-chemical disturbances. Factors like high evaporation, dry wind, high temperature, and low rainfall rate are helpful for good salt production. Biological system is in admirable harmony with production of saltern. Many birds, animals and microorganism are found in and around salt pan. The physicochemical features and biological systems are essential for the proper functioning of saltpans. This present study evaluates the physico-chemical parameters of brine from various sites of the different saltpans in Naigaon. For the purpose of further assessing and monitoring these kinds of ecosystems, this study provides baseline data on the physico-chemical parameters.
