Reproduction and survival data sets of chronic laboratory toxicity tests with snails (Lymnaea stagnalis) exposed to six concentrations of cadmium during 28 days. Six concentrations were tested, with six replicates per concentration. Each replicate contained five organisms. Reproduction and survival were monitored at 17 time points.
data(cadmium2)
A data frame with 612 observations of the following five variables:
replicate
A vector of class numeric
with the
replicate code (1
to 36
).
conc
A vector of
class integer
with the cadmium concentrations in \(\mu g.L^{-1}\).
time
A vector of class integer
with the time points
(in days from the beginning of the experiment \(t = 0\)).
Nsurv
A vector of class integer
with the number of
alive individuals at each time point for each concentration and each
replicate.
Nrepro
A vector of class integer
with the
number of clutches at each time point for each concentration and each
replicate.
