Name: Giant Kelp
Scientific: Macrocystis pyrifera
A.K.A.: Bladder Kelp
Notes: This species is a large aquatic brown algae found widely in subtropical, temperate, and sub-Antarctic oceans of the Southern Hemisphere and in the northeast Pacific. It is often a major component of temperate kelp forests. Individual algae may grow to more than 45 metres long at a rate of as much as 60 cm per day. The dense stands that make up kelp forests are home to many marine animals that depend on the algae for food or shelter. The primary commercial product obtained from giant kelp is alginate, but humans also harvest this species on a limited basis for use directly as food. It is rich in iodine, potassium, and other minerals. It can be used in cooking in many of the ways other sea vegetables are used.
