dc.description.abstract | There is a high pressure on coastal ecosystems from climate change and a diverse range of human
activities. To develop adequate marine spatial plans and achieve knowledge based management
decisions, managers and policy makers need mapped information, especially for areas of high
ecological functioning and marine biodiversity. Such information has been lacking in the marine
environment in Norway. In 2003, the National program for mapping and monitoring of marine
biodiversity started developing methods and organisational structure for mapping selected marine
habitats. As the Norwegian coast is long and complex, detailed mapping of the sea floor is costly.
Consequently, it was decided to develop and apply spatial predictive modelling as a tool. The
methodology includes collaboration between physical oceanographers, marine ecologists and
geologists, statisticians and modellers, including GIS experts. We will here describe the methods
developed and applied to the habitats “Large kelp forest” and “Carbonate sand deposits”, with
Trøndelag as study area. | no_NO |
