Relative abundance of benthic microalgae species was calculated based on total biomass in each initial community (A, B, and C). Species diversity measures are based on biomass...

Benthic microalgae species were determined microscopically with the Utermöhl counting technique. Biovolume was calculated for each species by approximating cell shapes to...

This dataset originates from a laboratory mesocosm experiment investigating the effects of simulated marine heatwaves (MHWs) on benthic microbial communities from sublittoral...

In a culture experiment with microalgae metacommunities, we tested the effects of a regional heatwave disturbance on species diversity (richness, Shannon diversity) and...

Species turnover in the different communities was calculated as the change in Bray-Curtis dissimilarity for samples of the same treatment over time. The Bray-Curtis...

Species richness in the local and regional communities represents the number of different species present in the community. Shannon diversity is a diversity measure that...
