Soft and Hard Bottom Habitats

Predicted SubstrateHard BottomSoft BottomUnsurveyed

Bathymetric data provided by Seafloor Mapping Lab (SFML),California State University Monterey Bay (CSUMB) and Fugro Pelagos, Inc. as part of the California North Central Coast Mapping Project. Additional data for Bodega Bay,San Francisco Bay mouth and Farallon Islands provided by SFML, CSUMB and/or MossLanding Marine Laboratories. Classification derived using a 3 x 3 cell rugosity analysis. Coarse bathymetry data (blue hillshade on bottom) is 200m resolution data from the California Department of Fish and Game. In some cases where fine-scale bathymetric surveys have not beenconducted, proxies were used to predict hard or soft substrate. In the northern part of the study region, presence of kelp (based on aerial surveys by CDFG) was used as a proxy for rocky bottom habitat. Estuaries were presumed to be soft-bottom substrate. Around the North Farallon Island, existing coarse-scale data (from Greene et al 2004) were used to approximate rock bottom. Note that additional data for Pt. Reyes and Tomales Bay exist, but have not yet been added to the map.
