Predictions of dominant habitat from the South-west Corner Marine Park (NESP MaC 1.4)

Created 23/06/2025

Updated 23/06/2025

Predictions of dominant habitats were completed as part of a report funded by the NESP Marine & Coastal Hub. This report focussed on an IUCN II zone in the South-west Corner Marine Park off the 'Capes region' near Margaret River. This modelling contains data from stereo Baited Remote Underwater Video and panoramic drop camera, and was completed using the FSS-GAM package in R. Predictions are at two different scales and resolutions, one using the broad 250 metre resolution Geoscience Australia 2009 bathymetry grid (http://dx.doi.org/10.4225/25/53D99B6581B9A) and the other using a 5 metre resolution Geoscience Australia multibeam survey (https://dx.doi.org/10.26186/145281).
