Variation of biofilm thickness. Cross-sectional images showing the variation of the biofilm thickness within and among samples. A A patch of biofilm up to 32μm thick with adjacent thinner biofilm of 3 to 6 μm. B The most common thickness observed in the kelp biofilm was 3 to 7 μm, with chains and filaments extending further into the water column. C A sparse biofilm including a region with no visible biofilm (red arrowhead)
