The shoreline is one of the harshest and most changeable environments for living creatures. The changing tides shift the environment dramatically within a sub-daily cycle. Here, we can consider two typical shoreline organisms, and the changing environment they must endure. Within the rocky shore environment, an octopus would be within the shallow but open sea environment during high tide, and water temperature and salinity conditions would be fairly constant. During low tide, the octopus might become trapped in a rock pool. This environment is dramatically different. The water temperature and salinity might increase drastically with exposure to solar radiation. The octopus is also more vulnerable to predation by humans and other land animals. Within the sandy shore environment, sand clams would be actively positioned at the interface of the sand and water, and will be actively filtering sea water for detritus. During low tide, the sand would be exposed to the air, and the clams would burrow down into the sand so as to avoid dessication.
Latin I think. It's like nomenclature, or something like that. ☺
Answer:
Over the course of one solar cycle, the Sun's emitted energy varies on average at about 0.1 percent. That may not sound like a lot, but the Sun emits a large amount of energy – 1,361 watts per square meter. Even fluctuations at just a tenth of a percent can affect Earth
