| Title: | Distribution of new E. lori settlers arriving on sponge habitat in South Water Caye, Belize in 2015 (NCEI Accession 0291427) |
| Abstract: | This dataset contains biological and survey - biological data collected from 2015-05-28 to 2015-07-25. These data include depth and species. These data were collected by Dr John Majoris and Dr Peter Buston of Boston University as part of the "Collaborative Research: The Role of Larval Orientation Behavior in Determining Population Connectivity (Elacatinus Dispersal II)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2019-03-19. The following is the text of the dataset description provided by BCO-DMO: Distribution of new Elacatinus lori settlers arriving on sponge habitat. Dataset Description: Distribution of new E. lori settlers (i.e., individuals These data were included in Figure 9 and Table 4 of: Majoris, JE; D'Aloia CC, Francis RK, Buston PM (Accepted) Differential persistence favors habitat preferences that determine the distribution of a reef fish.

| Supplementary information: | Acquisition Description: To observe the distribution of new settlers arriving from the water column, the 120 tagged sponges were cleared of settlers and then surveyed for new settlers every 24 – 48 hrs throughout two lunar cycles (28 May – 25 July 2015). We constructed a generalized linear mixed-effects model (GLMM; distribution = binomial; link = logit) using the ‘lme4’ package in R (Bates et al. 2015) to evaluate how habitat and social variables influence the distribution of new settlers on sponge habitat. The arrival of multiple new settlers on an individual sponge was rare. Therefore, we investigated the relationship between the presence or absence of an E. lori settler (0 or 1, respectively) and all habitat and social variables. Sponge ID was included as a random effect to control for repeated observations of the same 120 tagged sponges. |
