Class 0: source from which frond initials arise (active)	Class 1: Frond initials less than 0.5 m in length; usually with only a few blades apical scimitar present and growing (active)	Class 2: Apical scimitar present and growing frond at least 0.5 m in length but less than 1 m long (active)	Class 3: Apical scimitar present and growing frond at least 1 m in length but less than 1.5 m long (active)	Class 4: Apical scimitar present and growing frond at least 1.5 m in length but less than 2.0 m long (active)	Class 5: Apical scimitar present and growing frond at least 2.0 m in length, the fronds are long enough to reach into the top 0.5 meter of the water column at the surface (active)	Class 6: Mature fronds apex of the frond has terminated; no new blades will develop, the fronds may continue to elongate, blade loss has begun below the water surface (active)	Class 7: Senescent surface fronds, possess a terminal blade and pneumatocyst but blade loss has begun at the water surface; most remaining blades show severe tissue loss (active)
