Figure 1

Size-distributions across the surveys (2007, 2010, 2013, 2014).

Data from 2012 and 2013 are imputed. (a,c) Colony counts standardized to area of six phototransects (300 m2). (b,c) Proportional contributions to colony frequency in each survey. These were the data used for the modeling exercise. The severe mortality caused by the 2010 event, and subsequent regeneration with changed population dynamics, are clearly visible.
