Corona's great ocean covers about
80 per cent of the planet. The ocean contains 92 per cent of all the water
on Corona. Corona's ocean serve as a source of food, energy, and minerals.
The continents divide the ocean into three major parts. The Videlia Ocean,
Lehcar Ocean, and the Bluaqua Ocean. Corona's average depth is 13, 200
feet. Some parts reach up to 38,200 feet and others only 10,320 feet. The
surface temperature varies from about 32°F-90°F. In addition, ocean
temperature falls as the depth increases. Corona's ocean provides many
major resources such as food, energy, mineral and medicines. The ocean's
great size and little temperature change have an influence on the temperature
of Corona's temperature. All these factors add to the incredible variety
of living things residing in the ocean and topography of the oceans.
Corona has many beautiful seashores.
Corona's seashores can be classified into three categories: sandy shores,
muddy shores and rocky shores. They are constantly changing. As the sea
rolls in at high tide, most of the shore becomes part of the ocean. At
low tide, the sea retreats and the same area again becomes part of the
land. Corona's different seashore support a great variety of living things.Corona's
seashore are an important contributor to the life and existence of many
ocean plants and animals. Many of these organisms live nowhere except along
the ocean's edge. Life on rocky shores is more plentiful than on any other
type of seashore. A tiny organism that grows along
all seashore is Sylum. These organisms swim or float on the ocean tide.
Some grow into larger animals of the seashore but most remain the same.
Many seashore animals feed on Sylum.
Lake Augusta is the largest lake in
Corona. It empties out to the the Kuway river. The river passes through
tropical forest, and marshes along its course to the sea. Lake Augusta
is home to many species, some are unique to this great lake. Many species
originated in the ocean. Many of its more than 100 species of fish are
found only in the Lake Augusta.
Sealoch is located in the continent
of Na'im. It opens up into the ocean and is salty. It runs inland for about
4 miles. Its depth ranges from 5- 120 feet deep. Sealoch is home to a range
of marine life. Its inhabitants benefit from being more sheltered than
animals in the ocean.
Black sea is part of trench that
stretches for miles along the west coast of Soleyi. It reaches depths of
9 miles. At these depths, survival is very difficult for the small number
of inhabitants that must eat bacteria or each other in order to survive.
Corona's scientist believe that the trenches were formed by the continuous
movement of the Corona's crust. Many unusual sea creatures have developed
their own unique methods for survival in the extreme cold and darkness
of the deep Black Sea trench. Many deep sea species are blind and have
adaptations that allow them to detect prey in the dark. The Fizotail fish
for example has a long tail with sensors that detect movement. The quadpod
fish uses its four fins to prop itself up above the muddy sediment so it
can smell prey. Some deep sea animals produce light. Plants cannot live
in the dark trenches because they need light. Thus, the only available
food for the trench animal is the remains of dead material.
Clear
Reef is home to many beautiful and unique animals and plants. In its distinct
area lies different types of marine life and habitats. Clear Reef is home
to the greatest variety of habitats because it contains the greatest water
movement, variations in temperature, and saltiness. It stretches for 20
miles along the coast of Kapei. Scientist like to refer to Clear Reef as
the jewel of the Bluaqua.
