Depth range Littoral (0 to 30 m), 0-1 m. [details]Habitat The pool is a fissure-like depression between two small rocky hills, and is connected to the open sea only at high spring tide. The leaves of land plants and stranded algae were accumulating and decaying in the pool, making the water smell slightly of hydrogen sulfide. The salinity of the water in the pool measured on another day was 32 ‰, slightly lower than that of the open sea. [details]
