Why are large numbers of ocean animals found in areas where upwelling occurs?
estuary
Estuaries provide a place for people to live, fish, and swim.
The salinity of the water is constantly changing.
Oxygen is produced by photosynthetic microorganisms that live near the surface of the ocean.
They must be able to withstand extreme water pressures.
surface air and ocean plants
nutrient-rich salt marshes and mangrove forests of the Florida Everglades
Nutrients are increased by the movement of water.
Why are estuaries often valued as the center of human coastal communities?
