Description

Experimental shoreline data on snail foraging, temperature, and tidal cycling - Crab Predation Data

NOTE: Individual plots not included because snails suffering predation often were outside plot--removed by predator or had escaped.

Methods & Sampling

Dataset acquisition description

Experimental field experiment conducted in rocky intertidal. Please see related reference.

NOTE: Individual plots not included because snails suffering predation often were outside plot--removed by predator or had escaped.
