Adaptive Avoidance of Reef Noise
Figure 2
Catches of crustacean taxa in light traps with and without reef noise playback.
Mean ± se difference in total number of individuals of (a) larval developmental stage of reef-settling Brachyura, (b) pelagic taxa and (c) nocturnally emergent taxa; negative values indicate greater numbers in noise traps, positive values indicate greater numbers in control traps. N = 34 pairs of traps on separate nights. Numbers above or below bars indicate total number of individuals sampled.
