WA Marine Futures Project - biota
The Marine Futures Project was designed to benchmark the current status of key Western Australian marine ecosystems, based on an improved understanding of the relationship between marine habitats, biodiversity and our use of these values. Approximately 1,500 km2 of seafloor were mapped using hydroacoustics (Reson 8101 Multibeam), and expected benthic habitats "ground-truthed" using towed video transects and baited remote underwater video systems. Both sources of information were then combined in a spatial predictive modelling framework to produce fine-scale habitat maps showing the extent of substrate types, biotic formations, etc.
This project record provides linkage to each of metadata records describing data collected from the 9 study areas: Abrolhos Islands, Broke Inlet, Geographe Bay, Jurien Bay, Middle Island, Mount Gardner, Point Ann, Rottnest Island, and Southwest Capes. To access the source datasets from each study site in their original (unaggregated) form, see child records linked to this parent record.
