Additionally, we used two species of predators with differing consumption rates to test how predator traits might mediate the effect of removal on trophic cascade strength. The experiment was conducted within laboratory mesocosms at Bodega Marine Lab in 2018.\n\nThis dataset reports results for experiments with Cancer productus as the predator. See \"Related Datasets\" section for results from the experiments with Pisaster ochraceus as the predator.\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\nDate (unitless)\nContainers (unitless)\nCrab (unitless)\nSize (millimeters (mm))\nSex (unitless)\nTable (unitless)\nInitial (grams (g))\nFinal (grams (g))\nFinal_shift (grams (g))\nAlgae_consumed (grams (g))\n | BCO-DMO | bcodmo_dataset_947753_v1 |
