Detailed explanation-1: -Estuaries: Where the Ocean Meets Fresh Water Estuaries are biomes that occur where a source of fresh water, such as a river, meets the ocean. Therefore, both fresh water and salt water are found in the same vicinity; mixing results in a diluted (brackish) saltwater.
Detailed explanation-2: -BOREAL FOREST (TAIGA): dense evergreen needle-leafed forest Typical plants include white spruce, black spruce, and jack pine. Typical animals include moose, black bears, wolves, and migrant birds.
Detailed explanation-3: -The intertidal zone is the area where the ocean meets the land between high and low tides.
Detailed explanation-4: -The pelagic zone is generally cold though it is hard to give a general temperature range since, just like ponds and lakes, there is thermal stratification with a constant mixing of warm and cold ocean currents. The flora in the pelagic zone include surface seaweeds.
