Deep Coral Gardens

Posted on: June 24, 2007 10:02 AM, by CR McClain


The Alvin submersible dives on the New England Seamount chain found plentiful coral colonys of whip coral, parasol coral, and beautiful spiraling Iridogorgia. These coral collections are made up of hundreds of tiny polyps, arranged in precise geometric patterns. Video courtesy of Les Watling, Mountains in the Sea Exploration, NOAA-OE.

Many thanks
