Water Biomes

3 Types of Water Biomes Freshwater Marine (Ocean) Estuaries *Rivers and Streams *Lakes and Ponds Marine (Ocean) *Saltwater *Seashores (tidal areas) Estuaries *Freshwater and Saltwater meet *Marsh

*Freshwater contains little or no salt, so it has a LOW salinity Freshwater Biomes *Freshwater contains little or no salt, so it has a LOW salinity *Flowing freshwater = streams, rivers, brooks *Still Freshwater = lakes and ponds

Flowing Freshwater Streams

Flowing Freshwater Rivers

Flowing Freshwater Brooks

Freshwater Ponds

Freshwater Lakes

Saltwater biome contains the majority of water on Earth Saltwater Biomes * Ocean - About 95% of the water on Earth has a high concentration of salt (high salinity) Saltwater biome contains the majority of water on Earth

Saltwater *Oceans Can be divided into 2 main life zones *1. Photic zone - sunlight penetrates *2. Aphotic zone - NO sunlight

Draw and Label this with Marine Biomes

Photic Zone Above 200m Sunlight penetrates * Plant life and animal life is abundant

Aphotic Zone Below 200m Sunlight DOES NOT penetrate *There are no plants *Animal life is highly specialized

Estuaries (Wetlands) Examples: marshes, Florida everglades -*Area where a river meets an ocean Mix of salt and freshwater *Located near coastlines, *Extremely fertile Nutrient levels are higher than both salt and freshwater Examples: marshes, Florida everglades

Estuaries (Wetlands) Chesapeake Bay
