Classifying Marine Environments in 5 SentencesMarine environments can be classified into three main zones: the intertidal zone, neritic zone, and oceanic zone. The intertidal zone is the area between high and low tide that is exposed to air at low tide and submerged at high tide. The neritic zone is the shallow, coastal area extending from the low tide line to the edge of the continental shelf. The oceanic zone covers the deep, open waters beyond the continental shelf dominated by plankton and nekton like sharks. Estuaries provide sheltered nurseries for young marine life. Upwellings occur when deep, nutrient-rich water rises to the surface, fueling high
The three main zones used to classify marine environments are the intertidal zone, neritic zone, and oceanic zone. The intertidal zone is the area between high and low tide that is exposed to air at low tide and submerged at high tide. The neritic zone is the shallow, coastal area extending from the low tide line out to the edge of the continental shelf. The deepest zone is the open ocean or oceanic zone, which covers most of the Earth and contains ecosystems found around features like estuaries, areas where fresh water meets salt water
