Ghedini, White & Marshall (2018) Metabolic scaling across succession: do individual rates predict community-level energy use? Functional Ecology

A series of data on the species composition of sessile invertebrate communities at different successional stages, community total mass and metabolism. In addition, there are species-specific metabolic rates, area-mass relationships, body size distributions and abundance for the three dominant species in the community (Pyura, tubeworms and Watersipora) which we used to estimate overall community metabolism.
