Definition of bathyal in English: bathyaladjectiveˈbaθɪəlˈbæθiəl Relating to the zone of the sea between the continental shelf and the abyssal zone. Example sentencesExamples - In contrast, the many shale layers seem to be poor in macrofossils largely because they were deposited at depth below the photic zone (upper bathyal depth) as indicated by benthic foraminifera.
- After a short erosion interval, rapid subsidence started to produce contemporaneous neritic limestone and shallow bathyal marl again.
- Wherever the Valle Group is exposed, it has been interpreted as a clastic, marine, sedimentary sequence that includes turbidite, submarine-fan complexes deposited in water depths ranging from outer neritic to bathyal.
- Their depositional environment varies from outer neritic to upper or middle bathyal.
- Historically they have radiated (divided into new species) in bathyal habitats (bottom-dwelling on the continental slope between 200 and 2000 m in depth) and cool-water coastal areas.
