Large Marine Ecosystems of the World
LARGE MARINE ECOSYSTEMS are areas of the ocean characterized by distinct bathymetry, hydrography, productivity, and trophic interactions.They annually produce 80 percent of the world's fish catch. They are national and regional focal areas of a global effort to reduce the
degradation of linked watersheds, marine resources, and coastal environments from pollution, habitat loss, and over-fishing. For More Information Visit: http://www.lme.noaa.gov
