Marine organisms are said to live in a "desert" because ocean waters, especially in open ocean regions, have low nutrient concentrations similar to those found in deserts. This makes it challenging for marine organisms to find food, just like how organisms in deserts struggle to find water. However, in contrast to deserts, the ocean is vast and teeming with life in certain areas.
