Stacked plastic plates, called "sandwiches" (left), used as artificial substrates for larvae of vent animals. As part of the research project LADDER (Larval Dispersal on the Deep East Pacific Rise), a team that included WHOI biologists used the Deep Submergence Vehicle Alvin to deploy the sandwiches on the seafloor near a hydrothermal vent site and later recovered them to see how larvae settled and grew on them.
