#' An example of live-dead dataset based on marine macro-benthic invertebrate assemblages.

#' \details{
#' A live-dead dataset including live and dead specimen counts from 44 sampling station off
#' the coast of North Carolina, USA. Data include counts of live and dead macro-benthic
#' invertebrates and represents a subset of a larger dataset described
#' in Tyler and Kowalewski (2018).
