Effects of experimental temperature on activity of chimney macrofauna. Each data point represents an observation of a single chamber from one temperature experiment. Behavior was categorized as follows: (1) Activity at experimental temperature with continued activity following return to low temperatures, (2) obvious reduction or cessation of activity with restoration of activity following return to low temperatures, (3) activity at experimental temperature but cessation of activity at higher temperatures and/or no activity after return to low temperature, or (4) no activity with no return of activity at lower temperatures.
