EUSeaMap (2021) Broad-Scale Predictive Habitat Map - Biological zones (a habitat descriptor)
Predictive Biological Zone layer produced by EMODnet Seabed Habitats as an input layer for the 2021 EUSeaMap broad-scale habitat model. The extent of the mapped area includes the Mediterranean Sea, Black Sea, Baltic Sea, and areas of the North Eastern Atlantic extending from the Canary Islands in the south to the Barents Sea in the North. The map of biological zone was produced using underlying physical data and thresholds derived from statistical analyses or expert judgement on known conditions.
The model is produced in R and Arc Model Builder (10.1). The model was created using raster input layers with a cell size of 0.00104dd (roughly 100 meters). The model includes the sublittoral zone only (Infralittoral to Abyssal zone).
An accompanying confidence layer is available for viewing and download from EMODnet Seabed Habitats.
Reports detailing the methods used in the previous versions of EUSeaMap (v2016 and V2019) are linked in online resources a new report is in progress.
