    Predicted Nearshore Benthic Substrates of California - R7 - CDFW [ds3091]

    Metadata Updated: November 27, 2024

    This dataset uses rugosity measurements collected during the California Seafloor Mapping Project (CSMP) as a proxy to classify benthic habitat as either Hard or Soft. While originally developed for MPA planning and MLPA implementation, this dataset provides a comprehensive estimate of benthic habitat for California waters. Two versions of this data are available:Statewide mosaic raster of all data resampled at 10m (shown here). Vector format for visualization and analysis. Substrate classifications are binned into depth ranges and 1 degree latitude/longitude grids.
