9 Οκτ 2024 · Corals are scattered throughout the tropical and subtropical Western Atlantic and Indo-Pacific oceans, generally within 30°N and 30°S latitudes. Western Atlantic reefs include these areas: Bermuda, the Bahamas, the Caribbean Islands, Belize, Florida, and the Gulf of Mexico.
30 Σεπ 2021 · Coastal ecosystems generally contain more oxygen and nutrients and are warmer and sunlit. Thus, they are more diverse than open ocean ecosystems. Understanding and being able to visually represent these differences using mapping techniques is essential to monitor and properly manage marine ecosystems.
The adaptive capacities of marine and coastal ecosystems varies among species, sectors, and geographical regions. In the broader oceans, marine organisms will be relatively free to move to new geographical areas; organisms in enclosed seas and coastal zones are more constrained by the physical features
10 Οκτ 2024 · High biodiversity in Earth’s oceans is critical to a healthy planet. Biodiverse marine ecosystems in the ocean produce half of the oxygen we breathe and are a massive carbon sink.
