Most aquatic biomes displa vertical stratification. For example, the photic zone includes teh upper layer of water in which there is enough light for photosynthessi to occur, whereas the aphotic zone is characterizd by very low light penetration. ]]> 2016-08-21 23:42:11 UTC https://padlet.com/imogenrose/wrog59zuo7h6/wish/119068131 imogenrose https://padlet.com/imogenrose/wrog59zuo7h6/wish/119068673 2 types-
#1 Standing bodies of water, such as lakes or wetlands
In lakes communities are distributed according to the water depth. 
Oligotrophic lakes are deep lakes that are nutrient poor and oxygen rich and contain sparse phytoplankton. 
Eutrophic lakes are shallower, and they have higher nutrient content and lower oxygen content with a high concentration of phytoplankton

#2 Moving bodies of water, such as streams and rivers
the prominent physical attribute is the current. Organisms are distributed in vertical
zones and from the headwaters to the mouth. 
Estuaries are areas where freshwater streams or rivers MERGE with the ocean. Estuaries are among the most productive habitats on Earth.

Coral reefs are among the most productive ecosystems on Earth. ]]> 2016-08-21 23:58:24 UTC https://padlet.com/imogenrose/wrog59zuo7h6/wish/119069478 https://padlet.com/imogenrose/wrog59zuo7h6/wish/119260822 2016-08-22 21:44:16 UTC https://padlet.com/imogenrose/wrog59zuo7h6/wish/119260822 https://padlet.com/imogenrose/wrog59zuo7h6/wish/119261026 2016-08-22 21:46:54 UTC https://padlet.com/imogenrose/wrog59zuo7h6/wish/119261026 https://padlet.com/imogenrose/wrog59zuo7h6/wish/119261277 2016-08-22 21:50:43 UTC https://padlet.com/imogenrose/wrog59zuo7h6/wish/119261277 https://padlet.com/imogenrose/wrog59zuo7h6/wish/119261353 2016-08-22 21:51:48 UTC https://padlet.com/imogenrose/wrog59zuo7h6/wish/119261353 https://padlet.com/imogenrose/wrog59zuo7h6/wish/119261483 2016-08-22 21:53:29 UTC https://padlet.com/imogenrose/wrog59zuo7h6/wish/119261483 jpatino3 https://padlet.com/imogenrose/wrog59zuo7h6/wish/119270784 2016-08-22 23:50:17 UTC https://padlet.com/imogenrose/wrog59zuo7h6/wish/119270784 jpatino3 https://padlet.com/imogenrose/wrog59zuo7h6/wish/119271897 2016-08-23 00:04:47 UTC https://padlet.com/imogenrose/wrog59zuo7h6/wish/119271897 jpatino3 https://padlet.com/imogenrose/wrog59zuo7h6/wish/119271971 2016-08-23 00:05:42 UTC https://padlet.com/imogenrose/wrog59zuo7h6/wish/119271971 jpatino3 https://padlet.com/imogenrose/wrog59zuo7h6/wish/119272081 cnidarians - a Phyllum

This damages both the animal and plant population of the aquatic habitat.
