GLMM Files for Crown-of-Thorns Starfish Orientation Behavior (n = 95)

95 GLMM files for Crown-of-Thorns Starfish orientation behavior, excluding third-and-later repeated trials. The dataset includes variables for individual ID, reproductive phase, seawater inflow rate, surface temperature, movement result, coral species count, coral mass, and sex. It was authored by Masumi Kamata and last updated on May 5, 2026.

Use Cases

• Modeling starfish movement decisions based on coral odor and environmental conditions.
• Analyzing the effect of reproductive phase and seawater temperature on foraging behavior.
• Investigating sex-based differences in orientation towards coral prey.
• Evaluating the impact of coral mass and species diversity on predator attraction.

Strengths

• Includes 95 GLMM files, providing a substantial sample for statistical analysis.
• Contains specific experimental variables like seawater inflow rate and surface temperature.
• Data is structured with clear variable definitions for ID, Phase, Water, ST, Result, Sp, Mass, and Sex.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
