The fish in the different pelagic and deep water benthic zones are physically structured, and behave in ways, that differ markedly from each other.
22.
Activities include sampling and measuring water quality, attending lectures on marine science and river history, studying the river's benthic zone, and more.
23.
Because the benthic system regulates energy in aquatic ecosystems, studies have been made of the mechanisms of the benthic zone in order to better understand the ecosystem.
24.
"' Benthos "'is the community of organisms that live on, in, or near the seabed, also known as the benthic zone.
25.
The benthic zone in the sublittoral is much more stable than in the intertidal zone; temperature, water pressure, and the amount of sunlight remain fairly constant.
26.
Although there has been much research devoted to Western Interior Seaway strata, the impact of Oceanic Anoxic Event II on the oxygen content of the benthic zone is still contested.
27.
These various forms of macrophytes generally occur in different areas of the benthic zone, with emergent vegetation nearest the shoreline, then floating-leaved macrophytes, followed by submersed vegetation.
28.
The benthic zone also plays an important role in Black Sea nutrient cycling, as chemosynthetic organisms and anoxic geochemical pathways recycle nutrients which can be upwelled to the photic zone, enhancing productivity.
29.
The superficial layer of the soil lining the given body of water, the benthic boundary layer, is an integral part of the benthic zone, and greatly influences the biological activity which takes place there.
