Dear data users,
This repository contains 3 sets of files corresponding to the data analysis (R Script) and dataset (xlsx or csv files) for 3 sections of this paper.
Attached are the following pairs of R script and dataset for the section of:

----> R script: R_official_oysterrecruitment_percentage.R
---->dataset: merged_data_oct2021_forEA.csv
The variable names and description of each variable contained in this data are as follows. *Please refer to the PhD thesis or Leong et al 2022 Restoration Ecology and thesis for specific description and methods of calculation for each variable.
estuary * - categorical variables of estuary -either Port Hacking, Crookhaven River or Hunter River
tile_id - unique replicate of each tile where the response variable (oyster counts and percentages) where collected from
reef_id - unique replicate of each tile where the response variable (oyster counts and percentages) where collected from
area* - reef area
dist.to.edge * - distance of each tile to the nearest patch edge in meters
elevation* - surface elevation of the base of each tile relative to mean sea level
prox.index* - proximity index of each reef in relation to other reefs on a landscape scale
iso.index* - proximity index of each reef in relation to other reefs on a landscape scale
circle* - circularity of each reef
frac* - two-dimensional fractional dimensionality of each reef
liveoys_oct2020 - live counts of oysters on each tile at the end of the experiment
deadoys_oct2020 - dead counts of oysters on each tile at the end of the experiment
totoys_oct2020 - total (live + dead) counts of oysters on each tile at the end of the experiment
percent_live_oct2020 – live / (live + dead) *100% oysters on each tile at the end of the experiment

sed.rate – sedimentation rate (grams/ day) of sediment traps deployed next to tile replicates.
cov.temp_logger – Covariation of temperature (no unit) based upon on temperature measured by temperature logger attached to selected tile replicates for a specific deployment period
q5_logger – 5th quartile of daily temperature in Celsius measured by temperature logger attached to selected tile replicates for a specific deployment period
q95_logger – 95th quartile of daily temperature in Celsius measured by temperature logger attached to selected tile replicates for a specific deployment period

The variable names and description of each variable contained in this dataset are as the following. For detailed information on how variables collected in this dataset, please refer to PhD thesis and Leong et al 2023/2024 Ecological Applications publication and thesis.
estuary - categorical variables of estuary -either Port Hacking, Crookhaven River, Hunter River, Shell Point (Georges River), Bermagui and Hawkesbury River
est_type - categorical variables of estuary type as either “non-sed” (not-sedimented heavy estuary) or “sed” (sedimented heavy estuary)
tile_id - unique replicate of each tile where the response variable (oyster counts and percentages) where collected from
elevation - surface elevation of the base of each tile relative to mean sea level
totrec_all - counts of total oyster recruits on the all surfaces per tile (not used for the analysis in thesis and Leong et al 2023 Ecological Applications)
totrec_top - counts total oyster recruits on the top surface per tile (not used for the analysis in thesis and Leong et al 2023 Ecological Applications)
totrec_deadonlytop – counts of dead oyster recruits on the top surface per tile (not used for the analysis in thesis and Leong et al 2023 Ecological Applications)
totrec_liveonly - live counts of dead oyster recruits on the top surface per tile (not used for the analysis in thesis and Leong et al 2023 Ecological Applications)
totrec_per – percentage live counts (live/total *100%) of oyster recruits on all surface of each tile
sediment_shell – dry weight of sediment collected in sediment trap next to each tile
