Invertebrate abundances in a revegetation study

Description

Data from a study looking at the effect of revegetation on invertebrate communities (data from Anthony Pik, Macquarie University). Invertebrates were sampled in 4-5 pitfall traps at eight sites that had undergone revegetation, and two sites that hadn't, and it was of interest to see what the effect of revegetation was on the invertebrate community.

Usage

data(reveg)

Format

A list containing three objects:

abund

A data frame with abundances of 24 Orders of invertebrate.

pitfalls

A vector specifying the number of pitfall traps that were collected at each site.

treatment

Whether the site was a 'Control' or a site that had undergone revegetation ('Impact').

Examples

data(reveg)
worms = reveg$abund$Haplotaxida
plot(worms~treatment, data=reveg, horizontal=TRUE,
  las=1, xlab="",ylab="Worm abundance")
