Conclusions:

The techniques described in this project should provide scientists with a powerful statistical protocol that will allow us to examine patterns in vent landscapes for spatial significance and help us to answer the following questions:

• For a given species, are the numbers of animals observed correlated with microhabitat features?

• For a given species, what are the scales of aggregation (clumping)? What are the physical, or physiological constraints operating on a given population?
