Summary
"Most of Earth is covered by oceans and seas that are home to an amazing variety of animals. Some have adapted to life in the cold, dark aphotic zone. Others live in the disphotic zone where predators attack from above or below. Still others live in the top layer; the euphotic zone, where food is plentiful but competition for it is fierce. Discover how animals survive and thrive in saltwater biomes around the world."-- Back cover
