Exаmple A: Increаsing sediment оntо cоrаl reefs has been identified as a major source of habitat degradation, and yet little is known about how it affects reef fishes. In this study, the hypothesis that sediment-enriched water impairs the ability of larval damselfish to find suitable settlement sites was tested. At three different experimental concentrations of suspended sediment (45, 90, and 180 mg/l), pre-settlement individuals of two species (Pomacentrus amboinensis and P. moluccensis) were tested to see their preference for coral coverage habitat (Wegener et al., 2011). Determine the independent variable.
