Scrub Zone

Area after the pioneer zone, where wave actions are infrequent
Real World Example
Imagine trying to keep a garden alive in a backyard that's mostly shaded, where the sun only occasionally peeks through. This situation is similar to the scrub zone in coastal environments, where wave action is infrequent, allowing hardy plants to establish themselves. Just as the shaded garden provides a stable environment for certain plants to thrive without the constant stress of direct sunlight, the scrub zone offers a more stable environment for certain vegetation to grow without the constant disturbance of waves.
