Terrain- and climate-based habitat suitability indices for the reef-building coral Lophelia pertusa on the Blake Plateau (southeastern United States)

Habitat suitability model outputs from Gasbarro et al. (2022) covering the Blake Plateau region of the southeastern United States margin. These include raster surfaces of ensemble mean, median, and standard deviation habitat suitability indices. Bathymetry-derived terrain variables were used to gene...

Description
Summary:Habitat suitability model outputs from Gasbarro et al. (2022) covering the Blake Plateau region of the southeastern United States margin. These include raster surfaces of ensemble mean, median, and standard deviation habitat suitability indices. Bathymetry-derived terrain variables were used to generate the terrain suitability layers, while climate model outputs were used to generate the climatic suitability layers. Rasters are in WGS84. See Gasbarro et al. (2022) for full modeling details. Funding provided by: Bureau of Ocean Energy Management Crossref Funder Registry ID: http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/100012475 Award Number: M17PC00009
