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 submarine 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.

Image ID: 01107   Species: Giant kelp, Macrocystis pyrifera Location: San Clemente Island, California, USA   Sunlight streams through giant kelp forest. Giant kelp, the fastest growing plant on Earth, reaches from the rocky reef to the ocean's surface like a submarine forest. Image ID: 33433   Species: Giant Kelp, Macrocystis pyrifera Location: Catalina Island, California, USA   Bryozoan grows on a red gorgonian on rocky reef, below kelp forest, underwater. The red gorgonian is a filter-feeding temperate colonial species that lives on the rocky bottom at depths between 50 to 200 feet deep. Gorgonians are oriented at right angles to prevailing water currents to capture plankton drifting by.

Gorgonians are oriented at right angles to prevailing water currents to capture plankton drifting by. Image ID: 25394   Species: Red gorgonian, Lophogorgia chilensis Location: San Clemente Island, 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. Image ID: 25396   Species: Giant kelp, Macrocystis pyrifera Location: San Clemente Island, California, USA   Salema schooling amid kelp forest. Image ID: 01022   Species: Salema, Xenistius californiensis, Macrocystis pyrifera Location: Catalina Island, California, USA   The Kelp Forest offshore of La Jolla, California. A kelp forest. Giant kelp grows rapidly, up to 2' per day, from the rocky reef on the ocean bottom to which it is anchored, toward the ocean surface where it spreads to form a thick canopy. Myriad species of fishes, mammals and invertebrates form a rich community in the kelp forest. Lush forests of kelp are found throughout California's Southern Channel Islands.

Image ID: 35828   Location: Santa Barbara Island, California, USA   Kelp Forest, Santa Barbara Island. Image ID: 35830   Location: Santa Barbara Island, California, USA   Giant kelp frond showing pneumatocysts. Small gas bladders -- pneumatocysts -- connect the kelp's stipes ("stems") to its blades ("leaves"). These bladders help elevate the kelp plant from the bottom, towards sunlight and the water's surface.
