  2. Hemipelagic sediment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemipelagic_sediment

    [1] [2] Hemipelagic sediments are deposited on continental shelves and continental rises, and differ from pelagic sediment compositionally. Pelagic sediment is composed of primarily biogenic material from organisms living in the water column or on the seafloor and contains little to no terrigenous material. [ 1 ]

  3. Pelagic zone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelagic_zone

    Altogether, the pelagic zone occupies 1,330 million km 3 (320 million mi 3) with a mean depth of 3.68 km (2.29 mi) and maximum depth of 11 km (6.8 mi). [2] [3] [4] Pelagic life decreases as depth increases. The pelagic zone contrasts with the benthic and demersal zones at the bottom of the sea. The benthic zone is the ecological region at the ...

  4. Pelagic sediment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelagic_sediment

    Pelagic sediment or pelagite is a fine-grained sediment that accumulates as the result of the settling of particles to the floor of the open ocean, far from land. These particles consist primarily of either the microscopic, calcareous or siliceous shells of phytoplankton or zooplankton ; clay -size siliciclastic sediment ; or some mixture of these.

    Midwater (pelagic) otter trawl 1: trawl warp, 2: otter boards, 3: longline chains, 4 hunter, 5: weights 6: headline with floats, 7: pre-net, 8: tunnel and belly, 9: codend Midwater trawling is trawling , or net fishing, at a depth that is higher in the water column than the bottom of the ocean.

  6. Benthic-pelagic coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benthic-pelagic_coupling

    Benthic-pelagic coupling are processes that connect the benthic zone and the pelagic zone through the exchange of energy, mass, or nutrients. These processes play a prominent role in both freshwater and marine ecosystems and are influenced by a number of chemical, biological, and physical forces that are crucial to functions from nutrient cycling to energy transfer in food webs.

  7. Marine food web - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_food_web

    The pelagic food web, showing the central involvement of marine microorganisms in how the ocean imports nutrients from and then exports them back to the atmosphere and ocean floor. A marine food web is a food web of marine life. At the base of the ocean food web are single-celled algae and other plant-like organisms known as phytoplankton.

  8. Neritic zone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neritic_zone

    Above the neritic zone lie the intertidal (or eulittoral) and supralittoral zones; below it the continental slope begins, descending from the continental shelf to the abyssal plain and the pelagic zone. Within the neritic, marine biologists also identify the following: [citation needed]

  9. Bathypelagic zone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bathypelagic_zone

    Layers of the pelagic zone. 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.
