Brief description

This data is from an experiment investigating the recovery of disturbed areas of Hormosira banskii. This experiment was done at 3 sites within Bunurong Marine Park from May 1990 to December 1991. Quadrats were disturbed by removing as much H.banksii as possible by hand and then scuffing the area to remove most remaining fronds. Variables measured in each quadrat were the percent cover of H.banksii and other non-turfing algae and the number of gastropods.

Maintenance and Update Frequency: notPlanned
Statement: There were 4 plots within each site and 2 quadrats within each plot. Quadrats were 60 x 40 cm and were placed either in the Hormisira or at the edge of the Hormosira with 1 of the 40 cm sides along the Hormosira/'bare-rock' border. This was done in April 1990 and the quadrats were then left for a month to stabilise. The plots were sampled in May, July, October 1990, January, April, July and December 1991. Data parameters: percent cover of algae, number of gastropods.
