Info

Gulf of Mexico NEARSHORE and OFFSHORE SPECIES The Gulf of Mexico is home to a high diversity of organisms. Species may be generally grouped according to water depths where they most often occur. Nearshore = Estuarine waters to continental shelf edge (0m - 200m). Offshore = Beyond shelf edge (> 200m). Nearshore and offshore occurrences are approximations of distribution, and many species in the Gulf of Mexico may migrate between these areas during their life cycle or seasonally (e.g., for reproduction, water temperature, currents, and prey availability).
