Amphipod counts from 2020 ocean acidification experiment ...
These data are counts of amphipods that had been maintained under ambient pH (8.0 to 8.1) and experimental pH levels of 7.7 (potential end-of-century ocean acidification conditions) and 7.3 (potential next-century conditions). The amphipods were collected from the brown macroalga Desmarestia menzies...

| Summary: | These data are counts of amphipods that had been maintained under ambient pH (8.0 to 8.1) and experimental pH levels of 7.7 (potential end-of-century ocean acidification conditions) and 7.3 (potential next-century conditions). The amphipods were collected from the brown macroalga Desmarestia menziesii and placed into experimental containers (5-gallon buckets) for 5-6 weeks (experimental period significantly shortened by COVID complications). D. menziesii was also present in the buckets and the density of amphipods on the macroalgae was the same as it was in the field collections. The dataset includes counts of amphipods in the initial conditions and at the end of the experiment from the three pH levels. ... |
