The rocky shore: Organisms living on rocky shores experience variations in temperature and salinity, availability of water and exposure to sunlight at different stages of the tidal cycle. High on the shore, these abiotic factors are the main influence on the distribution and abundance of species, but lower down the shore biotic factors such as competition and predation have the greatest influence.
