For the past decade, she’s pursued these minute birds throughout her study area in the Ashepoo, Combahee, and Edisto (ACE) basin (named after the three rivers that meet there), one of the largest undeveloped estuaries along the U.S. Atlantic coast. She is still unsure exactly how ...
Marine: In the Marine Biome, subcategories of Coastal, Coral Reefs, Deep Sea, Estuaries, and Intertidal are found. Coastal: Offers the majority of saltwater fish humans consume, though it is also the area most negatively affected by humans themselves. Pollution, agricultural run-off, and even...
Sedimentary rock is produced by sediments such as mud or sand, usually found on rivers, lakes, estuaries and ocean bottoms. Most fossil remains are preserved, and found, in sedimentary rock. This makes fossils of sea organisms more common than their land-based counterparts. ...
