Aquatic Biomes II Pito Fernandez

Marine Biomes The marine region take ¾ of Earth’s surface. It includes: Oceans Coral reefs Estuaries http://www.discoverceredigion.co.uk/ http://www.huffingtonpost.com/ http://www3.jjc.edu/ftp/wdc13/

Where can the Marine biomes be found? http://imagefreehd.com

Oceans The largest ecosystem Large bodies of water that dominate the Earth’s surface Some of the animals that live here are: Blue Marlin Blue Shark http://www.gambassa.com/ http://www.planetdeadly.com/

Coral Reefs Are widely distributed in warm shallow waters Found as barriers along the continent Some organisms that live here: Corals Sponges http://www3.jjc.edu http://grist.org

Estuaries It is where the freshwater region merges to the ocean Unique ecosystem The organisms that live here: Great Egret Hermit Crab http://academic.reed.edu http://hughvandervoort.com
