Low-Temperature Stability<\/b><\/h2>

While the temperature of surface seawater varies 8-30\u2103\u00a0from season to season, the deep seawater of Toyama Bay only fluctuates 2\u2103\u00a0all year round.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

Inorganic Nutrient Richness<\/b><\/h2>

As photosynthesis does not occur at depths where sunlight does not penetrate, inorganic nutrients are not consumed. As a result, in comparison with surface water, deep seawater contains a high amount of inorganic nutrients including nitrogen and phosphorus, which are consumed by phytoplankton.\u00a0
The balance of minerals is also favorable.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

Purity<\/b><\/h2>

The amount of organic matter and bacteria in deep seawater is considerably less than in surface water. Deep seawater is extremely pure from both a chemical and microbiological standpoint.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>
