What is water depth?
-The amount and types of wavelengths available to organisms change dramatically as the water depth
increases
-As the water gets deeper, the light intensity decreases
What physical factors effect the distribution and abundance of organisms in aquatic biomes?
-Water depth
-Nutrient availability
-Water movement
-Temperature
What are the types of aquatic biomes and how are they classified?
-They are classified by salinity
-Fresh water ( less than 0.1% salt), marine (salt water)
How have humans impacted terrestrial biomes?
-By physically changing the landscape
-Farming, logging, & urban development
-Indirect effects: pollution, invasive species, climate change
Describe the arctic tundra

-Very low temps
-Very low annual rainfall

What are tropical, sub tropical, and temperate climates?
-Tropical: no freezing temps
-Sub-Tropical: mild winters, humid summers
-Temperate: extended periods of freezing temps
How are temps determined by solar irradiance and the tilt of the Earth?
-Regions at or near the equator receive more sunlight than regions that are close to the poles due to the
Earth's tilt
-Solar irradiance causes seasons in the Northern and Southern hemispheres
What are terrestrial biomes?

What are the 5 main levels of the study of ecology?
1.) Organisms - study the adaptions that allow organisms to live successfully
2.) Populations - study how population #'s change over time
3.) Communities - study nature and interactions between species
4.) Ecosystems - Study how energy moves
5.) Global - Study the global biosphere
What does biogeography mean?
-The study of how organisms are distributed geographically
What does range mean?
-Geographic distribution of a species
What are biomes?
-A large community of organisms that occupy a distinct region
What is water depth?
-The amount and types of wavelengths available to organisms change dramatically as the water depth
increases
-As the water gets deeper, the light intensity decreases
