Eelgrass communities in southeast Alaska (eelgrass density and biomass, epiphytes, and epifauna)
Intertidal seagrass community data were collected during summertime 2017 (May-August) on western Prince of Wales Island, Alaska. The purpose of these data was to characterize the eelgrass community so that analysis of trophic interactions could be assessed along a gradient of sea otter occupation fo...

Intertidal seagrass community data were collected during summertime 2017 (May-August) on western Prince of Wales Island, Alaska. The purpose of these data was to characterize the eelgrass community so that analysis of trophic interactions could be assessed along a gradient of sea otter occupation for an NSF-funded project: Apex Predators, Ecosystems, and Community Sustainability (APECS, http://apecs-ak.org/). Data were collected at 21 independent sites. At each site, the coordinates, sampling date + times, and tidal elevation were recorded. At each site, one 100 m transect was laid horizontally along a shoreline, along which data were collected in 8 quadrats. Data types include eelgrass shoot count and biomass per replicate shoots, flowering eelgrass shoot count, rhizome biomass paired with shoots, rhizome internode lengths, two-dimensional percent cover of epiphytes and macroalgae within a quadrat, biomass of epiphytes wiped from eelgrass shoots, and counts and biomass of epifauna collected from eelgrass shoots.
