Method synopsis

Selection of ant nests representing different abandonment times to study legacy effects. Nests categorized as active (2016), recently inactive (2013), and older inactive (2010) to create a temporal gradient of ecosystem effects.

Synthesized from method descriptions across 1 paper using this protocol.
