Why is most productivity in open oceans limited to surface water?
Areas of the open ocean are often very deep. Primary productivity relies on sunlight, and sunlight only penetrates the first 10m or so (varies widely) of the ocean surface. Therefore, only this surface zone is photosynetically productive, which in turn fuels secondary (small crustaceans, zooplankton, etc.) and tertiary (fish) production.
