Outcropping reef ledges drive patterns of epibenthic assemblage diversity on cross-shelf habitats

2016-03-01

Abstract excerpt

Seafloor habitats on continental shelf margins are increasingly being the subject of worldwide conservation efforts to protect them from human activities due to their biological and economic value. Quantitative data on the epibenthic taxa which contributes to the biodiversity value of these continental shelf margins is vital for the effectiveness of these efforts, especially at the spatial resolution required to e...
