The ecosystem is sensitive to environmental changes. These environmental changes whether chemical or physical directly affect the species richness and composition, the biodiversity of the area.

Well only certain creatures can live in certain areas like fish... they don't have legs so they cannot live on land. That is why there are different ecosystems. even though they can adapt it would take a very long time for it to do so which then could result in the extinction of that species.
If you accept the concept of natural selection (and you may not), then different types of plant and animal evolve to occupy different niches within an environment. Different conditions such as temperature, humidity etc will favour one form of animal / plant over another. So differences in place create differences in bio-diversity.
There are two components of biodiversity; species richness and species composition. The health of an ecosystem is directly impacted by this richness and composition.
Stable ecosystems.
Biodiversity encompasses the variety of organisms at all levels from populations to ecosystems. It includes genetic diversity within species, species diversity within communities, and the variety of ecosystems present in a particular area. Biodiversity is important for ecosystem functioning and resilience.
some solutions to biodiversity are by protecting whole ecosystems

Marine biodiversity refers to the variety of species and ecosystems found in the ocean, while land biodiversity refers to the variety of species and ecosystems found on land. Marine biodiversity is influenced by factors such as salinity, temperature, and pressure, while land biodiversity is influenced by factors such as temperature, altitude, and soil type. Marine biodiversity is often higher than land biodiversity due to the vast and connected nature of ocean ecosystems.
