The Roles of Sea-Ice, Light and Sedimentation in Structuring Shallow Antarctic Benthic Communities
Fig 3
Sedimentation flux through time.
(A) Polygons are individual sediment traps, with height showing average daily sediment flux and width showing deployment duration. Colour represents position in bay: red = inner, green = outer. (B) As above, but data are partitioned into sites and position within bay. (C) Plots of average daily sediment flux vs. deployment duration. Left-hand plot shows all traps, and right-hand plot shows traps deployed during summer only. In right-hand plot, fitted lines are predicted values of GLMM for each position in bay.
