sediment causes H2O to discolor. also sediment causes some submerged vegetation to die.
The sediments build up on the floor of the stream, ocean, river, or lake and causes the water to lower.
Marine life and oxygen for those organisms to survive ! And sediments, which are none living !
Lithogenous sediments come from the land They result primarily from erosion by water, wind, and ice Biogenous sediments originate from organisms The particles in these sediments come from shells and hard skeletons. Although lithogenous sediments represent the largest total volume, biogenous sediments cover a greater area of sea floor
When sediments dissolve in water, they release minerals and nutrients into the solution, which can enhance water quality and support aquatic life. This process can also contribute to the formation of soils as dissolved substances settle and accumulate over time. Additionally, dissolved sediments can affect water chemistry and clarity, influencing ecosystems and the organisms that inhabit them.
Water pollution is the contamination of bodies of water. Water pollution affects plants and organisms living in these bodies of water.
As water moves downstream, it can transfer sediments, nutrients, pollutants, and organisms. This movement of materials and organisms can affect downstream ecosystems and water quality.
Yes, sediments do affect the ocean. There are a couple ways in which sediments affect the oceans. If too many sediments on the ocean floor get stirred up in the surface water it can potentially harm the water life by suffocating and killing the life. It can also make visibility worse and can harm commercial fishing corporations.
The availability of water is the critical factor.
Biogeneous sediments
Yes, phosphate is released as rocks and sediments wear down due to weathering processes. This released phosphate can then be transported by water and incorporated into soil and bodies of water, where it becomes available for uptake by plants and other organisms.

Climate is important because of its affects on organisms and where they live. Climate is also important because you need water and sunlight to grow plants.
