Aquatic Biomes

Terrestrial vs. Aquatic Biomes Terrestrial biomes are ones located on land In your group list the 6 terrestrial biomes you’ve learned about on the white board.

Terrestrial vs. Aquatic Biomes Aquatic biomes are located in water What are the two main types of water on the earth?

Characteristics of the Marine Biome Largest biome on earth Largest amount of photosynthesis and oxygen production from seaweed, algae and phytoplankton worldwide Most stable ecosystem since water retains heat energy from the sun throughout the seasons Constant and stable supply of nutrients from terrestrial runoff

Zones of the Marine Biome
