Kelp distribution model across Brittany (France)
Data represents percentage cover of kelp forest. The Habitat model was generated from kelp forest presence/absence determined from acoustic surveys of laminarial algae. KdPar, sea surface temperature, depth and current speed were used as predictive variables. Habitat model represents only the areas where kelp forests may occur, not the areas confirmed in field observations.
