Graba-Landry PhD Chapter 3: Impaired growth and survival of tropical macroalgae (Sargassum spp) at elevated temperatures

Data investigating the: 

a) relative growth rate 

b) physical toughness 

c) nitrogen (% DW) 

d) susceptability to herbivory 

of adult Sargassum thalli grown in different temperature treatments. 

We also investigated the effect of temperature to 

a) survival 

b) relative growth rate 

to Sargassum swartzii propagules
