This data set represents a reanalysis of the work of Clements et al. 2022 (Meta-analysis reveals an extreme “decline effect” in the impacts of ocean acidification on fish; PLOS Biology) wherein effect sizes initially presented as LnRR were converted to % impairment relative to a control value of 100%. The meta-analysis data set includes citation meta-data, relevant individual study information, and ocean-acidification-induced effect sizes. Three files are provided: 1) meta-data, 2) all individual data sets, and 3) data sets presented as study/paper means. 

This data set is a meta-analysis originally published by Clements et al. 2022 (Meta-analysis reveals an extreme “decline effect” in the impacts of ocean acidification on fish; PLOS Biology). New additions to the data set as presented here include re-analysis of effect size by converting LnRR to a percent impairment metric. No original data collection or other processing was undertaken. Analyses were performed on data as individual collected experimental data (one file) and as study means per publication (one file). 

The files are provided as CSV files.
