Abstract

This dataset is from a manipulative experiment investigating intracohort priority effects between two competing reef fishes (Thalassoma hardwicke and T. quinquevittatum). The study was conducted in the northern lagoon of Moorea, French Polynesia (17 30’S, 149 50’W), at the Gump Research Station between February and August 2007, using a grid of 28 live-coral patch reefs in water 2 to 4 meters deep.

This dataset is from a manipulative experiment investigating intracohort priority effects between two competing reef fishes (Thalassoma hardwicke and T. quinquevittatum). For additional data, please see files listed in Related Datasets.
