Figure 3. Extreme longevity and centuries of synchronous shell growth.

Figure 3

Raw increment width measurements (logged here to improve clarity) during a 410-year period (AD 1500–1909) for 2 very long-lived specimens of A. islandica, showing the strength of synchronous growth throughout (r=0.89; P<0.0001; N=410).
