Kelp Forests
Kelp forests are underwater areas with a high density of kelp, which are large brown algae. These forests provide shelter and nourishment for many marine organisms and are vital to coastal ecosystems.
Seagrasses
Seagrasses are flowering plants that grow in shallow marine environments. They play an essential role in the ocean ecosystem by stabilizing the sea floor and providing food and habitat for marine life.
Coral Reefs
Coral reefs are underwater structures made from calcium carbonate, secreted by corals. These vibrant ecosystems support thousands of marine species and are often referred to as the "rainforests of the sea."
