some types of graptolites floated on the surface of the oceans while others lived in deeper water over the self-edge and upper slope and some lived at great depths. Graptolites lived at all levels of the water column and their main food source was plankton. However‚ we don’t know for sure how graptolites lived because there is not enough information about them to link them to any living organisms. 3. 3-3A. a) Genus: Monograptus b) Order: Graptoloidea 3-3B. a) Genus: Tetragraptus

El Niño is a climate pattern that describes the unusual warming of surface waters along the tropical west coast of South America. El Nino has an impact on ocean temperatures‚ the speed and strength of ocean currents‚ the health of coastal fisheries‚ and local weather from Australia to South America. El Niño events occur irregularly at two- to seven-year intervals. However‚ it is not a regular cycle‚ or strictly predictable in the sense that ocean tides are. El Niño has long been recognized

species of life. Yet we often forget that there are patches of the ocean that are not swarming with such life. These “marine deserts” are some of the least lively waters of the ocean which stems from shifting ocean currents that devoid regions of plankton; the base of the oceanic food chain. Yet‚ these same waters are home to some of the most notorious marine predators. The striped marlin‚ for example‚ are daylight hunters who usually have to search far and wide for a meal in this part of the open

Dissolved Oxygen (DO) 1. What is dissolved oxygen? Dissolved oxygen is the amount of oxygen mixed into the water and is necessary for aquatic life. 2. How does it get into the water? DO gets into the water in many different way but primarily it is absorbed from the atmosphere and aquatic plants. 3. Why is it important? DO is important because it provides oxygen to aquatic organisms and without it they wouldn’t be able to live. Low levels would cause hypoxia and make it extremely difficult for
