Abstract
AbstractStudy on the total spectrum of organisms (72 species) subjected to hydrostatic pressure as of this date allows one to established categories of pressure tolerance (resistance): Extremely high – eurybiotic forms (1000–1200 atm), High – marine littoral, planktonic, freshwater (600–1000 atm), Moderate – marine littoral, planktonic, freshwater (400–600 atm), Low – planktonic, freshwater (100–300 atm), Extremely low – planktonic, freshwater (0–100 atm). The average pressure tolerance of marine littoral species is higher than that of planktonic species but not significantly different from freshwater species. Eurybiotic species which are not marine seem to show the highest pressure tolerance.
