This layer displays the predicted fourth-root transformed density (number per square meter) of sea whips based on generalized additive models of camera survey density data. Predictions are shown for only those grid cells where the average presence-absence model indicated that the invertebrate taxa would be present.
This predictive surface is a component of the results from a NOAA Alaska Fisheries Science Center study entitled "Validation and improvement of species distribution models for structure-forming invertebrates in the eastern Bering Sea with an independent survey". |
