Description:

General presentation

This repository presents the R code and associated data used in the article Multiple human activities in coastal benthic ecosystems: introducing a metric of cumulative exposure.

Datasets include information about the stations sampled at Sept-Îles (Québec, Canada) in 2017 and exposure indices. Data includes species biomass, density and taxonomy of benthic macrofaunal species, with physico-chemical parameters at the sediment surface, biotic indicators and exposure indices.

The main research questions were to:
  1. model the exposure of benthic ecosystems to anthropogenic activities locally
  2. explore the links between benthic community diversity and anthropogenic exposure

Specific details

  • Variables, units and files are explained in files README.yml (this file is a basic text file formatted with a YAML language) and README.txt.
  • Language and software used for the analyses: R (4.2), PRIMER-E (6)
