U.S. West Coast Deep-Sea Coral and Sponge Habitat Suitability Models

May 25, 2022
Uploaded by Frank Pendleton
Description:
This document contains geospatial data related to models predicting the spatial distributions of deep-sea corals and sponges offshore of the continental U.S. West Coast to 1200 m depth. These models were developed as part of a study funded by the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) to meet its environmental assessment, management, and decision-making needs, as well as to support coastal and ocean management efforts by other local, state, and federal agencies.
