Three replicates were taken for each treatment (Cage, Partial cage and Blanco respectively). In the Cage, the epifauna was excluded; in the Partial cage (the first control introduced in our experiment), the epifauna was not excluded, so only the influence of the cage itself was investigated; in the Blanco (the second control in our experimental design, without cage) the epifauna remained well in order to follow the natural changes in time of the meiobenthos in the Avicennia marina mangal. Three monthly meiobenthic samples were collected for each treatment; together with those meiobenthic samples, abiotic factors (grain size analysis, curtosis, skewness, median particle diameter, porosity, % organic material, temperature, redox potential, pigment analysis (measurements of chlorophyl a, fucoxanthin), nutrient analysis (NQ,- NO3, NH4+, and Si), salinity, pH and dissolved oxygen) were measured once a month."; String FreshFlag "0"; String GBIF_UUID "1bfb9389-ed6e-4415-81fe-c235e56fc70d"; Float64 geospatial_lat_max -4.41; Float64 geospatial_lat_min -4.41; String geospatial_lat_units "degrees_north"; Float64 geospatial_lon_max 39.84; Float64 geospatial_lon_min 39.84; String geospatial_lon_units "degrees_east"; String history "2025-03-09T23:23:35Z (local files) 2025-03-09T23:23:35Z http://erddap.eurobis.org/erddap/tabledap/meiobenthos_epifauna_gazi_bay_1992.html"; String infoUrl "[{'DOIID': 154, 'PublicationYear': 2016, 'DOI': '10.14284/154', 'Citation': 'Schallier R.; Coomans A.; Marine Biology Section; Zoology Institute; Biology Department; Faculty of Sciences.

The URL specifies what you want: the dataset, a description of the graph or the subset of the data, and the file type for the response.
Tabledap request URLs must be in the form
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/datasetID.fileType{?query}
For example,
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/pmelTaoDySst.htmlTable?longitude,latitude,time,station,wmo_platform_code,T_25&time>=2015-05-23T12:00:00Z&time<=2015-05-31T12:00:00Z
Thus, the query is often a comma-separated list of desired variable names,
followed by a collection of
constraints (e.g., variable<value),
each preceded by '&' (which is interpreted as "AND").
For details, see the tabledap Documentation.
