RIKZ: Marine benthic data

In romunov/AED: Package Accompanying 'Mixed Effects Models and Extensions in Ecology with R'

Description

Marine benthic data comes from Zuur et al. (2007).

Usage

RIKZ

Details

Marine benthic data from nine inter-tidal areas along the Dutch coast. The data were collected by the Dutch institute RIKZ in the summer of 2002. In each inter-tidal area (denoted by ‘beach’), five samples were taken, and the macro-fauna and abiotic variables were measured.

• Sample: sample number

• Richness: species richness

• Exposure: index composed of the surf zone, slope, grain size, and depth of anaerobic layer

• NAP: height of sampling station compared to mean tidal level

• Beach: beach identifier
