Results from experiment examining Zostera marina genotype response to warming from the Bodega Marine Laboratory

Expand/Collapse All

Description

Zostera marina genotype-specific traits after transplantation, a 5-week warming event, and a 5-week recovery.

The experiment is described in:
Reynolds LK, DuBois K, Abbott JM, Williams SL, Stachowicz JJ (2016) Response of a Habitat-Forming Marine Plant to a Simulated Warming Event Is Delayed, Genotype Specific, and Varies with Phenology. PLoS ONE 11(6): e0154532. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0154532

Methods & Sampling

Data Processing Description

BCO-DMO processing:
- modified parameter names to conform with BCO-DMO naming conventions;
- replaced "." with "nd" (missing data/no data);
- rounded columns to 2 decimal places: leafpro_grams, leafpro, above_below, alpha, ETR_max, NO3.
