This product represents the predicted spatial patterns of species abundance, species richness and species evenness of demersal fish communities in the SEMR. It provides a description of the structure rather than the composition (i.e. specific species) of these assemblages. Structure equates to total species abundance (the total number of individuals), species richness (the total number of species) and species evenness (relative proportions of species). The product can also be used to identify areas in the SEMR that are predicted to have unique combinations of species richness and evenness. This allows managers to identify areas that are predicted to have common or rare types of community structure.

This product (i.e. Access data base) contains data (longitudes, latitude and biodiversity attribute variables) that describes the predicted spatial patterns of biodiversity categories based on species richness and evenness of demersal fish in the EMR. This product provides predictions for total species abundance, species richness and species evenness and estimates of uncertainty for demersal fish. The predicted patterns are represented as point data arranged on a 0.1 degree grid (~ 1.2 km2) covering depths 50-900 metres in the EMR from 24oS to 34oS

This product (i.e. an Access database and csv files) contains data (longitude, latitude and physical data) that explains the predicted spatial patterns of benthic habitats for demersal fish and benthic invertebrates in the EMR. Predicted patterns for habitats represent point data on a 0.01 decimal degree grid covering most of the EMR (approximately 78,000 square km).

This product (i.e. Access data base) contains data (longitudes, latitude and biodiversity attribute variables) that describes the predicted spatial patterns of biodiversity categories based on species richness and evenness of demersal fish in the NWMR. This product provides predictions for total species abundance, species richness and species evenness and estimates of uncertainty for demersal fish. The predicted patterns are represent as point data arranged on a 0.1 degree grid (~ 1.2 km2) covering depths 50-1500 metres in the NWMR

This product (i.e. Access data base) contains data (longitudes, latitude and biodiversity attribute variables) that describes the predicted spatial patterns of biodiversity categories based on species richness and evenness of demersal fish in the NMR. This product provides predictions for total species abundance, species richness and species evenness and estimates of uncertainty for demersal fish. The predicted patterns are represent as point data arranged on a 0.1 degree grid (~ 1.2 km2) covering depths 50-1500 metres in the NMR

This product (i.e. Access data base) contains data (longitudes, latitude and biodiversity attribute variables) that describes the predicted spatial patterns of total species abundance, species richness and species evenness for both benthic invertebrates and demersal fish in the SWMR. The predicted patterns are represent as point data arranged on a 0.1 degree grid (~ 1.2 km2) covering depths 50-1500 metres in the SWMR.
