Marine is a type of water body that primarily supports life forms, such as fish, crustaceans, and other aquatic organisms. It includes bodies like oceans, seas, and littoral zones, which are parts of the ocean where marine life thrives. Marine ecosystems can be divided into freshwater and saltwater systems based on their proximity to land.
Littorinids are a group of marine fish that include bony fish, such as the common carp (Littorina), and their relatives, the littoral species, which includes many other types of fish, including the redfish.
Dune is a type of landscape formed by a series of interconnected, flat sand dunes that exist in various environments such as deserts, mountains, and plains. These dunes are characterized by their irregular shape and presence of loose, sandy surfaces. Dunes can be classified into two main types based on the distance from the ocean: littoral and continental dunes.
Littoral gastropod
The term "littoral" is defined as the area or region that extends out from the shore, typically including beaches, rocky shores, and coastal areas. It encompasses the coastlines of countries such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and many other regions around the world. The littoral environment is characterized by sandy beaches, rocky cliffs, and marine life like seagulls, crabs, and fish.
