The sun shinning on a tidal pool during a hot day heats the water. As some water evaporates, the pool becomes saltier, causing a decrease in its oxygen content. Tide pools provide a home for hardy organisms such as starfish, mussels and clams. The inhabitants must be able to deal with a frequently changing environment such as changes in temperatures, salinity, and oxygen content.
