Modeled habitat suitability for mesophotic hard corals in Au’au Channel, Hawai’i from 2004-09-09 to 2010-07-17 (NCEI Accession 0129788)

Mesophotic hard corals (MHC) are increasingly threatened by a growing number of anthropogenic stressors, including impacts from fishing, land-based sources of pollution, and ocean acidification. However, little is known about their geographic distributions (particularly around the Pacific islands) because it is logistically challenging and expensive to gather data in the 30 to 150 meter depth … Read more
