[Fear behavior with predators: Tegula in the presence of Cancer crab cues] - Behavioral data of Tegula funebralis in the presence of predator Cancer productus within laboratory mesocosms at Bodega Marine Lab in 2018 (Trophic consequences of ocean acidification: Intertidal sea star predators and their grazer prey)

Listed in Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) ERDDAP

To examine the intensity of anti-predatory behavior of both Tegula funebralis and Nucella lamellosa, we measured the proportion of time individual snails spend above the waterline in the presence and absence of their predator species, Pisaster ochraceus and Cancer productus.

Description

Data from this experiment are used to calculate estimated predation rates for snails that do not behaviorally respond to their predators, which are used to determine the impact anti-predatory responses have on the strength of trophic cascades.

The experiment was conducted within laboratory mesocosms at Bodega Marine Lab in 2018 and 2019. This dataset reports results from mesocosms in this experiment with Tegula funebralis in the presence of predator Cancer productus. See "Related Datasets" section for results from other mesocosms and experiments to be published in Ng & Gaylord (2025, in-prep).
