Fig.3. Larval settlement rates in response to densities of adult oyster substrate.

Data collected in a controlled laboratory experiment, in 8 L replicate buckets. Excel software used to create the data. The number of Sydney rock oyster larvae settled per adult oyster is recorded. Adult oysters used as substrate were either A) Live or B) Dead. Two species of oyster were used; Sydney rock oyster and Pacific oyster. Oysters were placed in buckets in three densities; 1 oyster, 2 oysters and 3 oysters. Summary indicates the mean, and standard error of the mean.本数据集采自一项受控实验室实验，实验使用8升规格的重复实验桶开展。数据通过Excel软件生成。实验记录了每只成年牡蛎所附着的悉尼岩牡蛎（Sydney rock oyster）幼虫数量。作为附着基质的成年牡蛎分为两类：A）活体；B）死亡个体。实验采用两种牡蛎：悉尼岩牡蛎与太平洋牡蛎。实验桶内的牡蛎投放密度分为三档：1只、2只及3只。数据摘要包含平均值与均值标准误（standard error of the mean）。
