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: 33438   Species: Giant Kelp, Macrocystis pyrifera Location: Catalina 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   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: 30986   Species: Giant kelp, Macrocystis pyrifera   Kelp fronds showing pneumatocysts, bouyant gas-filled bubble-like structures which float the kelp plant off the ocean bottom toward the surface, where it will spread to form a roof-like canopy. Image ID: 35827   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.
