Description

The data and code in this document were obtained using diver-led visual surveys of mesophotic reef sites to examine how variations in potential ecological drivers may affect lionfish distribution on mesophotic reefs in Bermuda. These data and code were used for analysis and figure preparation in association with publication in Frontiers in Marine Science (Goodbody-Gringley et al. 2019).
