Fig. 4. Canonical Analysis of Principal Coordinates (CAP) of species composition of kelp forest sessile invertebrate communities.

Fig. 4

a CAP with time relative to the Blob (before: 2008–2013, during: 2014–2015, and after: 2016–2021) as a constraining variable. Points represent the average species composition across four sites for each sampling season. Lines represent (b) prominent species with correlations >0.6; (1) Actinostella californica (Phylum Cnidaria) (2) Bugula neritina (Phylum Bryozoa) (3) Thylacodes squamigerus (Phylum Mollusca) (4) Watersipora subatra (Phylum Bryozoa) (5) Diaperoforma californica (Phylum Bryozoa) (6) Phragmatopoma californica (Phylum Annelida) (7) Timarete luxuriosa (Phylum Annelida) (8) Encrusting bryozoan spp. (Phylum Bryozoa).
