Data from: Biodiversity and habitat assessment of coastal benthic communities in a sub-Arctic industrial harbour area
- Description:
General presentation
This repository present the R codes ans associated data used in the article Biodiversity and habitat assessment of coastal benthic communities in a sub-Arctic industrial harbour area.
Datasets include sampling information about the stations in Sept-Îles (Québec, Canada) sampled during three campaigns (2014, 2016, and 2017). Data includes density and taxonomy of benthic invertebrate species, with physico-chemical parameters and heavy metal concentrations at the surface of the sediment.
The main research questions were to:- describe coastal habitats and macrobenthic communities at Sept-Îles, in order to provide the first benthic ecological survey of the area
- evaluate the links between communities and abiotic variables (including heavy metals)
- detect the presence of similar benthic assemblages, along with their relationships with habitats
- evaluate how macrofaunal size range will influence community descriptions and relationships with habitat parameters
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 (4.0.2), PRIMER-E (6)
