The hadalpelagic zone is also called the trenches and is found from the ocean basin and below.
The ocean floor is which ocean zone.
Japan s marina trench is the deepest part of the ocean ever to be explored by man and it sits at 35 797 feet.
It is also known as the sunlight zone because this is where most of the visible light exists.
This zone is divided further into three subzones.
Plankton and jellyfish are drifters that inhabit this zone.
The oceanic zone is typically defined as the area of the ocean lying beyond the continental shelf but operationally is often referred to as beginning where the water depths drop to below 200 meters 660 feet seaward from the coast to the open ocean.
Ocean zone that includes all of the ocean floor deep and shallow parts continental shelf.
The area of the ocean beyond the continental shelf that includes the water column and the deepest darkest parts of the ocean deep zone from 1 km to the ocean floor this layer of the water column is the darkest coldest and harshest.
The depth depends on the trenches and valleys in the area.
The abyss because it is a zone of complete darkness no sunlight enters at all.
Below the sunlit zone is the twilight zone where some light penetrates the ocean to a depth of 3000 feet.
Area where ocean water heated by magma rises through cracks in the ocean floor.
A gently sloping shallow area of the ocean floor that extends outward from the edge of a continent.
An area located in the deep zone where ocean water sinks through cracks in the ocean floor is heated by the underlying magma and rises again through the cracks aquaculture raising marine and freshwater fish in ponds and underwater cages.
The deep zone is also known as.
This heat is responsible for the wide range of temperatures that occur in this zone.
Incline beyond the continental shelf.
Epipelagic zone the surface layer of the ocean is known as the epipelagic zone and extends from the surface to 200 meters 656 feet.
The hadalpelagic zone lies between 19 686 feet to 36 100 feet.
The sunlit zone is where photosynthesis takes place.
An abyssal plain is an underwater plain on the deep ocean floor usually found lying between the foot of a continental rise and a mid ocean ridge.
Shallow area of ocean floor that extends from continents.
Most animals living in the open ocean live in the sunlit zone.
