Sea snake sightings from Baited Remote Underwater Video Stations deployed by the Australian Institute of Marine Science were used to predict locations that are likely important habitats for sea snake populations within the North West Marine Region (NWMR). Presence/Absence of sea snakes were modelled with environmental parameters using Gradient Boosted Regression Tree model to predict habitat suitability within the 1000 m depth contour along the NWMR. This output is a result of work conducted as part of the NESP Marine Hub Project A8- 'Exploring the status of Western Australia's sea snakes'.
