The bathypelagic zone or bathyal zone (from Greek βαθύς (bathýs), deep) is the part of the open ocean that extends from a depth of 1,000 to 4,000 m (3,300 to 13,000 ft) below the ocean surface. It lies between the mesopelagic above and the abyssopelagic below.

Below the mesopelagic zone it is pitch dark. This is the midnight (or bathypelagic zone), extending from 1,000 metres (3,281 ft) to the bottom deep-water benthic zone. If the water is exceptionally deep, the pelagic zone below 4,000 metres (13,123 ft) is sometimes called the lower midnight (or abyssopelagic zone). Temperatures in this zone ...
The bathyal zone is the lower section of the midwater zone, and encompasses the depths of 1,000 to 4,000 metres (3,300 to 13,100 ft). [23] Light does not reach this zone, giving it its nickname "the midnight zone"; due to the lack of light, it is less densely populated than the epipelagic zone, despite being much larger. [24]
It is commonly found in the ocean's midnight zone, and twilight zone usually at depths of 6,665 m (21,867 ft). [5] Appearance.
This is a list representing time zones by country. Countries are ranked by total number of time zones on their territory. Time zones of a country include that of dependent territories (except Antarctic claims). France, including its overseas territories, has the most time zones with 12 (13 including its claim in Antarctica and all other counties).
The two frigid zones, or polar regions, experience the midnight sun and the polar night for part of the year – at the edge of the zone there remains one day, the winter solstice, when the Sun is too low to rise, and one day at the summer solstice when the Sun remains above the horizon for 24 hours.
