Image ID: 00627   Species: Giant kelp, Macrocystis pyrifera Location: San Clemente Island, California, USA   A kelp forest, with sunbeams passing through kelp fronds. Giant kelp, the fastest growing plant on Earth, reaches from the rocky bottom to the ocean's surface like a terrestrial forest. Image ID: 02411   Species: Giant kelp, Macrocystis pyrifera Location: San Clemente Island, California, USA   A SCUBA diver swims through a giant kelp forest which is tilted back by strong ocean currents. Giant kelp, the fastest plant on Earth, reaches from the rocky bottom to the ocean's surface like a submarine forest. Image ID: 01107   Species: Giant kelp, Macrocystis pyrifera Location: San Clemente Island, California, USA   Surf grass on the rocky reef -- appearing blurred in this time exposure -- is tossed back and forth by powerful ocean waves passing by above. San Clemente Island. Image ID: 10237   Species: Surfgrass, Phyllospadix Location: San Clemente Island, California, USA   Kelp frond showing pneumatocysts. Image ID: 02435   Species: Giant kelp, Macrocystis pyrifera Location: Santa Barbara Island, California, USA   Blue shark and offshore drift kelp. Image ID: 01078   Species: Blue shark, Prionace glauca, Macrocystis pyrifera Location: San Diego, California, USA   Blue shark underneath drift kelp, open ocean. Image ID: 01081   Species: Blue shark, Prionace glauca, Macrocystis pyrifera Location: San Diego, California, USA   Kelp fronds and pneumatocysts. Pneumatocysts, gas-filled bladders, float the kelp plant off the ocean bottom toward the surface and sunlight, where the leaf-like blades and stipes of the kelp plant grow fastest. Giant kelp can grow up to 2' in a single day given optimal conditions. Epic submarine forests of kelp grow throughout California's Southern Channel Islands.
