The two tables contains the necessary data to replicate the study "Acute effects of copper exposure and predation risk in five coastal copepods". In short, we tested for copper effects on survival in the presence and absence of kairomones (to mimic predation) in five species from three orders of coastal copepods. We exposed adult copepods to four copper concentrations (0-1350 µg/L, 48h) on an automated imaging platform and analyzed survival over time. The methods are described in detail in the publication

The following describes the contents of each column in each file.

Survivaldata Brochmann.csv Treatment: indicates the presence (Kairomone) and absence (Control) of kairomones in the experiment Time_d Time in days when a change in survival was registered Cu_0: Number of alive copepods at Time_d at a 0 ug L-1 Cu concentration. Cu_150: Number of alive copepods at Time_d at a 150 ug L-1 Cu concentration. Cu_450: Number of alive copepods at Time_d at a 450 ug L-1 Cu concentration. Cu_1350: Number of alive copepods at Time_d at a 450 ug L-1 Cu concentration. Species: The species that was exposed in the experiment.

Copepod_Length.csv Species: The species that was measured Well: the well number the animal was in Mean_length: prosome length of the animal in px Well_diameter: the diameter of the well in px mm_per_pixel: the relationship between mm and px measurements length_mm: the copepod prosome length in mm
