Ocean ecosystems are also often called marine ecosystems. Below, you will find a guide to ocean ecosystems.

  • Distinct strata (such as the deep sea and the surface of the ocean).
  • A delicate balance of organisms and their environment.

Major types of ocean ecosystems: There are various types of ocean ecosystems, including.

  1. Deep sea communities: creatures that live right on the sea bed and get energy not from the sun but from geysers springing from the earth’s crust.
  2. Surface communities: mammals, birds and fish nearer the air at the surface of the sea.
  3. The intertidal zone: spaces that are sometimes underwater and sometimes dry, depending on the tides.
  4. The broad ocean: communities living far out to sea, in the center of the oceans.
