Inconsistent relationships among protection, benthic assemblage, habitat complexity and fish biomass in Mediterranean temperate rocky reefs

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2021
Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) have been proved to effectively protect and restore fish assemblages. There is mixed evidence regarding the effects of MPAs on benthic assemblages, habitat complexity, and how protection might mediate the effects of habitat ...

A hybrid CART-GAMs model to evaluate benthic macroinvertebrate habitat suitability in the Pearl River Estuary, China

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2022
Benthic macroinvertebrates are an important part of the aquatic food chain in estuaries. Therefore, understanding their associated habitat requirements is critical in maintaining estuarine ecosystem stability, which has until now been evaluated using ...

Shallow-Water Benthic Habitat Mapping Using Drone with Object Based Image Analyses

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Spatial information on benthic habitats in Wangiwangi island waters, Wakatobi District, Indonesia was very limited in recent years. However, this area is one of the marine tourism destinations and one of the Indonesia’s triangle coral reef regions with a

Multiscale and Hierarchical Classification for Benthic Habitat Mapping

open access: yesGeosciences (Switzerland), 2018
Developing quantitative and objective approaches to integrate multibeam echosounder (MBES) data with ground observations for predictive modelling is essential for ensuring repeatability and providing confidence measures for benthic habitat mapping.

Estimation of the Benthic Habitat Zonation by Photo-Quadrat Image Analysis along the Fringing Reef of Weno Island, Chuuk, Micronesia

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Benthic habitat zonation is described from in situ observations and seabed photographs taken from the coastal area of Weno Island, Chuuk, Micronesia. Habitat groups, types, and boundaries are defined by visible substratum characteristics (i.e., in situ ...

Benthic Habitats

open access: yes, 2023
AbstractShallow-water coastal benthic habitats, which can comprise seagrasses, sandy soft bottoms, and coral reefs are essential ecosystems, supporting fisheries, providing coastal protection, and sequestering ‘blue’ carbon. Multispectral satellite imagery, particularly with blue and green spectral bands, can penetrate clear, shallow water, allowing us

Reef fishes of Saba Bank, Netherlands Antilles : Assemblage structure across a gradient of habitat types [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Saba Bank is a 2,200 km2 submerged carbonate platform in the northeastern Caribbean Sea off Saba Island, Netherlands Antilles. The presence of reef-like geomorphic features and significant shelf edge coral development on Saba Bank have led to the ...
