Скачать или смотреть Inside the kelp forest: Who lives where? | Word of the Bay

Dip below the surface of Monterey Bay and dive into a dense, sunlight-dappled forest where towering kelp sways rhythmically in the ocean waves. Many ocean animals call the kelp forest home. From urchins crawling around the holdfasts to rockfish hiding among the floating blades, and otters bobbing in the waves wrapped in kelp, this forest supports a bustling underwater community.

Healthy kelp forests are vital for healthy oceans. In recent years, marine heatwaves have negatively impacted California’s coastal kelp forests. We can all help protect these important ecosystems by taking action against climate change.
