Fig. 1. The extensive tubeworm roots of an aggregation that was excavated and
collected using the Bushmaster sampling device
(Bergquist et al., 2002;
Cordes et al., 2005b). This
photograph shows roots that are about 1 m long, extending below the carbonate
rock substrate. The roots were observed to break during collection and we
believe they might have been even longer in the intact aggregation (C.R.F.,
personal observation). Photo courtesy of Dr E. E. Cordes.
