Tide Pool
Here is an image of a tide pool of the coast of Nahant. The movement of this landscape is quite uinique. Here at high tide this whole pool fills up with water. Since the tide here is close to low all the seaweed and barnacles on these rock remain uncovered. If the water did cover the area, the seaweed would uses its air sacks to float to photosynthesize and catch plakton. The white areas where lall these hundreads of barnacles are would open up from the fortress of their shelll and begin feedin on plakton with their feet. Here this pool is contained by this ring of rocks 6 feet up. Erosin is very slowly weathering these rocks away, and in a few thousand years this tide pool will simply be worn down to a reef or sandbar.
