What are some examples of marine biomes?
Examples of marine biomes include oceans, the coral reefs within, and estuaries.
A marine biome is an aquatic biome that contains salt water rather than freshwater.
The ocean covers nearly 3/4 of the Earth’s surface and is the largest ecosystem.
Coral reefs exist in warm, shallow parts of the ocean and contain much of its biodiversity.
Estuaries are places where the ocean mixes with freshwater bodies of water, such as rivers, which creates a unique environment for a variety of organisms.
Here is an image of fish feeding on a coral reef. Many fish rely on coral reefs for food.
