Clues

  • (of a fish such as the salmon) migrating up rivers from the sea to spawn (10)
  • a decrease in the energy of light due to the adsorption and scattering in the water column (11)
  • A neutral substitute for “community” but implying no necessary interrelationships among species; also called species assemblage. (10)
  • requiring a specific growth substance beyond the minimum required for normal metabolism and reproduction by the parental or wild-type strain auxotrophic mutants of bacteria. (11)
  • Reworking of the sediment by waves and currents. (11)
  • the opposite of depressions - they are an area of high atmospheric pressure where the air is sinking. (12)
  • The part of the water column where light does not penetrate. (7, 4)
  • The process through which species arise while separated geographically. (10, 10)
  • water column between 4000m - 6000m (13)
  • without air' and refers to the body producing energy without oxygen. (9)
