attribute	NC_GLOBAL	summary	String	To better understand the impacts of disease on an important predator and its associate community, standardized count data were initiated by J. Timothy Wootton on Tatoosh Island, Makah Reservation, Washington, USA in 2014 as the sea star wasting disease epidemic of 2013-2014 was progressing through the northeastern Pacific Ocean. At the time of study initiation, signs of disease were absent from Tatoosh Island. Six sites with relatively large, uniform benches on shores with high wave exposure were selected for study areas. Surveys were carried out in the intertidal zone in late spring and summer during periods with strong spring tides to maximize population counts. The area of lower intertidal bench at each sampling site was estimated by tape measure as length x width (meters) of the lower intertidal (below lower limit of the mussel bed in 2014) assuming a rectangular area. Counts were made by the investigator by systematically walking along each site and counting each individual of Pisaster ochraceus encountered, noting whether it had signs of disease (lesions/ruptured body parts, missing arms, thin profile with crossed arms), and whether it was larger than 10 centimeters in diameter. Data characterize the decadal population dynamics and disease dynamics of a keystone sea star predator.
