The supra-tidal zone, also known as the splash zone or spray zone, is the area of a coastline or estuary that is above the spring high tide line and is regularly splashed by ocean water but never submerged. The supra-tidal zone is only flooded during storms or spring tides.
The pelagic zone is the open water column of an ocean or lake that is not close to the shore or the bottom.
The littoral zone is the area where the land meets the water in a lake, river, or sea, and is also known as the nearshore or littoral. It's a shallow, sloped area that stretches from the high-water mark to the shore, and into the water where sunlight reaches the bottom.
The benthic zone is the lowest ecological region of a body of water, such as a lake, ocean, or stream. It includes the sediment surface and some sub-surface layers.
