	Tide Pools
		The small tide pool, which was 9.5cm in depth, 26.7m from the shore, and 5.3m in area yielded the discovery of the fewest organisms.
		Of the ten pools tested, the depth ranged from shallow to deep, the distance to shore was from 50.4m to 3m, and the area from small to large (table 1).
		Pools closer to the shore are lower in salinity than the ones found farther because they are covered by the tide most of the time and exposed to the sun for a shorter amount of time, meaning they desiccate less, which leads to less of a salinity loss.

	Coastlines 2004-2005: Tide Pools—Depths Observable from Dry Land
		Tide pools, as their name implies, are the pools of seawater that remain in the intertidal zone (i.e., the area between high and low tide) when the tide has receded.
		The location of the pool in relation to low and high tides is a key physical factor, determining the amount of time a tide pool remains submerged by ocean waters or exposed to air during the daily tidal cycle.
		Tide pool aficionados are keenly attuned to the lunar cycle of spring (extreme) and neap (weak) tides so they know when they can reach some low tide pools that are only accessible during spring tides.

		The Tide pool phase serves as a sort of tutorial for the main game, introducing the basic tools in a fixed camera mode where gameplay mainly consists of eating and evolving by adding parts to the creature.
		According to a 15 minute developer demo, "It basically trains you that the game is about creativity, about making your own stuff and getting used to the controls." The most fundamental portion of this stage is the microbe editor, which is used to evolve your microbe.
		Presumably, when the creature development bar is full, the creature evolves to the next phase where the creature emerges from the "primordial ooze" as a slug giving the player a blank slate with which to create a creature.
