What percent of the ocean is kelp forest?

Giant kelp forests — found off of 25 percent of the world's coastlines, including iconic California coastal ecosystems — are in need of help, researchers say. Coastal ecosystems long filled with dense, swaying underwater forests are increasingly threatened by climate change, warming waters, and human activities.

How much kelp is there?

Kelp are large brown algae (Phaeophyta) that live in cool, relatively shallow waters close to the shore. There are about 30 different species of kelp worldwide. They grow in dense groupings much like a forest on land, and are found predominantly along the Pacific coast from Alaska to parts of Baja California.

What is the growth rate of kelp?

2. Giant kelp grow at an average rate of 11 inches (28 cm) a day but can grow 24 inches (61 cm) a day in ideal conditions.

Is kelp going extinct?

Under the listing, the giant kelp are considered an endangered ecological community. Any projects which could impact on the forests will now require assessments under national environment law.

What eat sea otters?

In this manner, sea otters are keystone predators in the kelp forests where they live. They are not at the top of the food web, however, and are eaten by orcas, great white sharks and other large predators. Sea otters are quite large, weighing up to 100 pounds (45 kg) and reaching lengths of nearly 5 feet (1.5 m).

How does kelp grow Minecraft?

Kelp can be planted on a broad variety of blocks. It grows underwater if it has either a source block of water or flowing water above it. If flowing water is above it, the kelp plant transforms the flowing water into a water source block when the plant grows into it.

These underwater towers of kelp provide food and shelter for thousands of fish, invertebrates, and marine mammal species. Kelp forests harbor a greater variety and higher diversity of plants and animals than almost any other ocean community.

What is the fastest growing thing?

The world record for the fastest growing plant belongs to certain species of the 45 genera of bamboo, which have been found to grow at up to 91 cm (35 in) per day or at a rate of 0.00003 km/h (0.00002 mph).

What's the fastest growing organism?

Macrocystis pyrifera is one of the fastest-growing organisms on Earth. They can grow at a rate of 60 cm (2 ft) a day to reach over 45 m (150 ft) long in one growing season. Juvenile giant kelp grow directly upon their parent female gametophyte.

What seaweed grows the fastest?

The giant kelp of the California coast can grow in length at the fastest rate known for any plant on land or sea, according to research conducted by The University of California's Institute of Marine Resources.

What sea animal eats kelp?

In the north Pacific, the sea otter is the main and only predator of kelp. On the California current, sheephead and spiny lobsters eat kelp too, along with the sea otters.

How do you get kelp without an ocean?

Kelp only generates in the water in Minecraft, and players will have to go to the sea to look for it. Kelp will not generate in the frozen ocean biomes, deep-frozen, warm ocean, and deep-warm. Kelp is mainly spotted around sea grass and can actually be put to use in the Minecraft world.

Are kelp forests dying?

Kelp forests may even be able to reduce climate change. Northern California's kelp forests are declining due to two stressors. First, there has been unusual and drastic ocean warming in the area. Second, sea star wasting disease is killing the main predator of sea urchins, the sunflower sea star.
