Brief description

Metadata record for data expected from ASAC Project 250
See the link below for public details on this project.

The study investigated the impacts of oiling on the biota of rocky shores. Five shore zones were evaluated and kelp holdfasts were collected (but not evaluated as part of this project). Data were collected using quadrat and line transect methods using counts and percentage cover as variables.

Data for this work was also used in ASAC projects 672 and 1003 (ASAC_672, ASAC_1003).

This dataset contains the 1988 data only.

The site codes used in this project are:

SB = Sandy Bay
SEC = Secluded Bay
BB = Buckles Bay
GC = Garden Cove
GG = Green Gorge
GB = Goat Bay

The first number given after the site code is the site number at that sampling location. The second number is the replicate at that site. Thus sb(1)3 is Sandy Bay site 1, replicate 3.

The numbers are total individuals of each species that were found in each holdfast sample. This is a basic, though standard, species-abundance matrix.
