Predicted deep-sea coral habitat suitability for Alaskan waters (NCEI Accession 0305765)

Description

This dataset includes predictive habitat models for deep-sea corals in Alaskan waters, including the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone. The taxa modelled include several coral taxa at the order (Antipatharia and Scleractinia) and the suborder level (Alcyoniina, Calcaxonia, Filifera, Holaxonia, Scleraxonia, and Stolonifera). Composite models of all taxa records and one to predict the distribution of coral gardens were also generated. The fauna were modeled at a ~ 700 x 700 m spatial resolution with a variety of physical, chemical, and environmental predictors under the MaxEnt framework with a spatial partitioning cross-validation approach. All models are presented in ASCII format and organized in folders by taxonomic group and composite model. Each folder contains a 'mxe_out_75_25' subfolder that contains the model outputs indexed by an HTML file. Opening the HTML in a browser presents a report that details the model's construction, interpretation, and presents links to download pertinent files. The file 'all_ak_records_jmg.csv' are the input coral records used in the models and 'background_jmg.csv' is the MaxEnt input file used for the background environmental variables. For more details on the construction of the models, see Guinotte and Davies (2013).
