NCCOS Assessment: U.S. West Coast Cross-Shelf Habitat Suitability Modeling of Benthic Macrofauna, 2016-10-01 to 2020-09-30 (NCEI Accession 0276535)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Metadata Last Checked: October 13, 2025 | Last Modified: 2023-02-17T00:00:00.000+00:00
This data collection contains geospatial data from models predicting the spatial distributions of benthic macrofauna offshore of the continental U.S. West Coast to 1200 m depth. It includes raster datasets at 25 x 25 m spatial resolution depicting the mean of the predicted probability of occurrence and the coefficient of variation of the predicted probability of occurrence for 43 taxa of benthic macrofauna. The data collection also includes raster datasets at 25 x 25 m spatial resolution depicting each of the 66 spatial environmental predictor variables considered for fitting the models.
