Positive cascading effects of epiphytes enhance the persistence of a habitat-forming macroalga and the biodiversity of the associated invertebrate community under increasing stress

CorrelativeStudy_Dataset_Data in this dataset are used to analyze the biomass of the macroalga, <i>H. incurva,</i> and that of its epiphyte, <i>J. rubens</i> along a depth gradient in December 2016 and April 2017. In addition, data in this dataset are used to analyze the photosynthetic efficiency of <i>H. incurva</i> along the depth gradient at both sampling dates.<br>Dataset_Experiments_Data in this dataset are used to analyze the physiology of <i>H. incurva</i> (photosynthetic efficiency, photosynthetic pigments and secondary metabolites, reproductive output) and the structure of the associated invertebrate assemblage under different experimental conditions, in both shallow and deep habitats.
