Legacies of temperature fluctuations promote stability in marine biofilm communities

We provide the data and R scripts from an experiment testing the role of warming history on the diversity and functional diversity of intertidal biofilm communities. In this study, 77 samples were collected throughout the experiment to investigate microbial community diversity (both taxonomic and functional). In addition, biomass measurements (chlorophyll a) were recorded. We also provide the associated metadata and analytical scripts used for processing and analyzing the data.
