Details

This dataset is related to the paper "Competing biotic interactions between fibrous algae and macrobenthos shape pioneer vegetation establishment in tidal marshes". The material is divided into six folders: Field survey 1 - seedlings Field survey 2 - Hediste Field transplantation experiment 1 - defaunation Field transplantation experiment 2 - Vaucheria vs bare mudflat Mesocosm experiment SupportingInfo - FigureS1 These folders contain the following: Survival data from the two transplantation experiments and a mesocosm experiment (CSV format) Algal cover data from the mesocosm experiment (CSV format) Aster seedling and Hediste densities recorded during monitoring surveys (CSV format) Additional information on Hediste sampling and the mesocosm experiment setup (XLSX format) Hediste and pioneer vegetation densities recorded in Lillo Potpolder from 2012 - 2022 (Figure S1; CSV format) Photos and video recordings of the mesocosm experiment (JPG and MP4 format)
