Deep-sea gigantism (Ecogeographic rules 🌍)

In zoology, deep-sea gigantism or abyssal gigantism is the tendency for species of deep-sea dwelling animals to be larger than their shallower-water relatives across a large taxonomic range. Proposed explanations for this type of gigantism include necessary adaptation to colder temperature, food scarcity, reduced predation pressure ...

#Intertidalzones at #seashores and the temporary exposure of #marineorganisms to air vary in intensity depending on the strength of the #tidalcycle,. Ricardo A. Scrosati (2022) studied the effects of #wintercold in intertidal areas on the #Atlantic Coast in #NovaScotia (#Canada) and found a #coldtolerance of organisms as long as the usual cold level is not much exceeded.

Marine biogeochemical cycles (Biogeography 🌍)

Marine biogeochemical cycles are biogeochemical cycles that occur within marine environments, that is, in the saltwater of seas or oceans or the brackish water of coastal estuaries. These biogeochemical cycles are the pathways chemical substances and elements move through within the...
