Mean plot-level responses observed in an experiment conducted at Zeke's Island National Estuarine Research Reserve where abundance of the seaweed Gracilaria vermiculophylla was manipulated to assess impact on multiple ecosystem functions

<p>These data represent the time-averaged value of each variable measured monthly in each plot over the course of a&nbsp;10 month experiment&nbsp;carried out on intertidal mud and sandflats located within the Zeke’s Island National Estuarine Research Reserve (33.95 N, 77.94 W), North Carolina, USA.</p>
