Notes.

Linear mixed effect models fit by restricted maximum likelihood; analysis of variance table of Type II sum of squares and Satterthwaite approximation for degrees of freedom.

Invasive macroalgae
Eucheuma denticulatum, Kappaphycus alvarezii, Acanthophora spicifera, Gracilaria salicornia
CCA
crustose coralline algae
SS
sum of squares
df
degrees of freedom in numerator and denominator

Bold p values represent significant effects (p < 0.05).
