Abstract

This dataset contains metadata and data for canopy height and epiphyte biomass of artificial seagrass landscapes in June, July, and August 2019. These data were collected as part of the following study published in Yarnall et al. (2024): To explore the independent influence of fragmentation per se (patchiness) on mobile juvenile bay scallop (Argopecten irradians) density, we constructed 16 artificial seagrass unit (ASU) landscapes, consisting of four replicates each of four treatments. Fragm...
