All About Our Earths Ecosystems!
TEMPERATE OCEANS
About Temperate Oceans:
The temperate oceans are found between the tropical oceans and the
polar oceans. Temperate oceans are very productive, especially at
coastlines. A hugely diverse range of animals live in temperate oceans,
so many that people are still discovering new species routinely! These
include some of the tiniest creatures such as microscopic zooplankton;
crustaceans such as krill, crabs, and lobsters; endless varieties of fish
such as tuna, salmon, herring, and cod; sharks, rays, mammals such as
sea lions, dolphins, whales, and otters; jellyfish, turtles, corals, kelp,
algae, and many others.

- Much of the worlds fishing is done in

support a large number of animals. This is

brings up nutrient-rich waters from the
bottom.
