BKristen Gershkoff Mr. Zabel Ecology 1 October 2012 How Abiotic Factors Affect the Biota The variation of abiotic factors in both the beach and the salt pond greatly affect the biota in those areas. At the beach there was a rocky landscape that rounded the water‚ while at the salt pond‚ there was more of a wet grassy area allowing different life forms or biota to thrive in each. Also‚ physical factors such as temperature‚ salinity‚ or dissolved oxygen levels allow for different life forms to

The show was playing from Sep 20 to Oct 13 and then got extended to show on Oct. 18th‚ 19th‚ 25th‚ 26th‚ and the 31st .The 6th street playhouse acting company did a marvelous job taping into their characters and expressing the emotions for every situation their character had.

Coasts undergo change due to coastal processes and (as with rivers) there are main processes at work: Erosion Transportation Deposition Each of these processes involves the power of the sea and the effect of waves that are carried to shore. However other factors also change and shape our coast. Factors which change and shape our coast Human activity and land use: The way in which humans manage and use coastal areas helps shape the coast. Some areas of coast are valued more than

Crushing violently against the slick and glimmering rocks that intermittently align the picturesque shore‚ the wonderfully blue velvet waves can be raucously heard from thousands of yards away. Jagged-edged and slippery‚ the mountains of bordering boulders act like the Great Wall of China‚ providing a barrier against the thrashing surf.

Its introduction in the intertidal zone or in near-shore waters can cause fragmentation and loss of natural habitats. Furthermore‚ the provision of novel habitat (hard substrata) along sedimentary shores can alter local and regional biodiversity by modifying natural patterns of dispersal of species‚ or by facilitating the establishment and spread

First and the most obvious‚ houses that are built along the shore are at risk of being washed away if more sand is being removed from the beach in the winter‚ and not enough sand is returned in the summer. Secondly‚ animals that live on the beach are at risk for losing their homes. The amount of sand on the beach

I grew up with the ocean; it was on the shores that I took my first steps‚ learned to swim‚ and grew familiar with all the small creatures the dwell near the shore. No‚ I didn’t entirely grow up on the beach‚ though I wish I had. I’ve lived since birth‚ in the Chicago land area. However‚ once a year my family has gathered in a beach house in North Carolina
