PhD Data_Martyn Kurr

<strong>Supporting Information for PhD Data_Martyn Kurr</strong> These files contains the data collected for the Doctoral Thesis of Martyn Kurr, 2011-2015; Trade-offs in macroalgal chemical defences: battle of the sexes, invaders and consumers, supported by NERC Grant NE/J500203/1 and the ASSEMBLE Mobility Scheme. This doctorate was undertaken at Bangor University (North Wales, UK), and is permanently available from Ethos; uk.bl.ethos.683507. Full details of the methods used to gather this data are available in that document, but in short this data comprises the results of a series of field observations, feeding trials, chemical assays, and laboratory-based procedures investigating the ecology and chemical dynamics of sexual dimorphism in <em>Ascophyllum nodosum</em>, and the invasion of <em>Sargassum muticum</em>; both marine fucoid macroalgae. One file is dedicated to each experimental chapter (chapters two through five), and columns are clustered into individual experiments or trials detailed in the thesis; where relevant a short note is placed before each cluster, for example to denote a particular site or trial run within a larger experiment. Missing data (for example when a feeding trial failed due to mortality) are indicated by an asterisks *. Although some assistance was provided during certain field-based trials (see acknowledgments in thesis), all data without exception were collected, processed, digitised, and archived by Martyn Kurr. This data is complete, and with the exception of peer-reviewed publications arising from the thesis, is unavailable elsewhere. The author declares no conflict of interest, and makes this data freely available for anyone to use. Please cite Dr Martyn Kurr in any instance of use.
