In addition to land biomes, the planet's biomes includeaquatic communities. These communities are also subdivided based on common characteristics and are commonly categorized into freshwater and marine communities. Freshwater communities include rivers, lakes, and streams. Marine communities include coral r...
those are marine biomes. They contain saltwater instead of freshwater. They also include coral reefs and estuaries. The ocean biome is the biggest of all of them in the world. That makes sense because so much of the surface of the Earth is made up of water. ...
Freshwater Biome Water is a major natural resource that is the basis of life. It supports life, and countless species live in it for all or part of their lives. Freshwater biomes supply us with our drinking water and water for crop irrigation. This water biome is named for the low concent...
we introduced the location of each assemblage in one of the 14 biomes distinguished by Olson et al66as an additional nested random effect in all models, i.e. we replaced the random-effects structure of SSB/SS with SSB/SS/biome, or, in cases where model selection had favoured a simpler ...

Lakes are also common bodies of water, but landmasses surround them, they are much smaller than oceans and seas, and they only contain freshwater. Rivers are elongated bodies of flowing water. Another major distinction between the ocean and inland bodies of water is that the ocean and seas co...
Herbivore diets can be highly variable, particularly across seasons and regions. In most cases where primary sources differed because of geographic variation in diets (e.g. a diet heavy in grass in one location and in browse in another), we increased the value of both dietary categories to re...

for the gas exchange model (ref.13). In addition, we restricted the upper elevation boundary to 4938 m (a.s.l), corresponding to the highest sampling location included in our CO2model. Rather than directly predicting streamwater temperature, channel width, flow velocity, CO2concentration, ...
Over the last few years, comprehensive trait databases with continental or global scope have become available, covering diverse taxa in the marine13,14and freshwater realm15as well as terrestrial taxa such as plants16and vertebrates17,18,19,20. Despite these monumental efforts that have involved co...
