The name of this area is the Sargasso Sea. The Sargasso Sea is ecologically important for the migrations of both the American and European eels, which lay their eggs in the seaweeds. The larvae grow up their before migrating to their respective waters. It is also believed that after hatching, young Loggerhead Sea Turtles use currents to travel to the Sargasso Sea, where they use the seaweeds as cover from predation until they are mature. From a human perspective, the seaweeds also help produce oxygen and help to filter out a small portion of the human pollution in the water.
