Coastal Habitats in the Aegean Sea: Soft Bottom, Seagrasses, and Hard Bottom
2020
The marine life on the seafloor of the Aegean Sea, from the sea surface to the edge of the continental shelf, is presented as a succession, in four bathymetric zones. The first two zones (supralittoral and mediolittoral) correspond to intertidal system, which is very narrow, due to the small range of tides in the Aegean Sea. Next to them, the other two zones (infralittoral and circalittoral) correspond to the subtidal photic system, which, in contrary, is very large due to the high transparency of the seawater.
