A total of 13 seascapes were derived for the continental shelf and nine seascapes for regions beyond the continental shelf using the unsupervised ISOCLASS classification in the software package ERMapper. The ecological significance of the seascapes is assessed at the national, regional and local scale using existing biological data. Options and avenues for future development are also described. {"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[110.0, -50.0], [170.0, -50.0], [170.0, -9.0], [110.0, -9.0], [110.0, -50.0]]]} 110.0 170.0 -50.0 -9.0 AU-EEZ Earth Sciences GA Publication Published_External Record continental margins habitat marine marine zone resource management File download documentDigital Appendix A and C ZIP Download the Record (pdf) documentDigital Download the Record (pdf) PDF Unnamed resource documentDigital HTML
