Multi-Taxa Biodiversity Data from Mangrove Ecosystems in Grenada

This dataset supports the study investigating species sorting and biodiversity in Grenada’s mangrove ecosystems. It includes comprehensive data collected from four mangrove sites: Mt. Hartman, Westerhall, Conference, and Levera, during February–June 2020. These mangals represent a range of site sizes, shapes, species compositions, and levels of anthropogenic disturbance, providing critical baseline data for future research on Caribbean mangroves.The dataset contains:Bird Data: Detection histories, species abundance, functional diversity metrics, and trait data from point counts conducted monthly at each site.Vegetation Data: Species composition, size class distributions, canopy width, basal area, and tree height measurements collected along transects with equidistant plots.Fish Data: Species composition and abundance in mangrove-associated waters, sampled using standardized netting methods.Water and Plant Stable Isotope Data: δ²H and δ¹⁸O measurements for water samples and plant material, collected to investigate water source use and plant-water interactions.Invasive Mammal Data: Detection histories for species such as rats, dogs, and cats, recorded using trail cameras.
