Added data in ASCII, and pointed out the reversal of the X axis.

After you paste it in, you'll need to select it with the code tool at the top of the edit window to indent it 4 spaces so it maintains its line-by-line format | |
| Apr 19, 2017 at 23:51 | comment | added | Glen_b | I've only just noticed that you have reversed your x-axis in the plot. Why would you do that without saying you had done so? Indeed why do it at all? Just showing the plot without being very clear you had flipped the axis is very likely to mislead people. If you want to lead answerers into giving bad advice, that's a good way to do it. Please unflip the plot or give a compelling reason in your text for flipping it around. | |
| Apr 19, 2017 at 23:20 | comment | added | Renata Dis | I have. It seems to me that the formula below should be the correct one, but I'm not sure: adult density = a * algae concentration^(-b) Right now I'm trying to fit this formula in R using the poweRlaw package while I wait to see some cyber opinions, but no success. It think the last value in the table is bugging up the whole thing, because it rises instead of dropping further. | |
