Benthic habitat mapping surveys of eastern Haida Gwaii and the north coast of British Columbia, 2013-2015 / by S.C. Davies … [et al.].: Fs97-6/3278E-PDF
"Surveys of shallow benthic habitat and associated benthic marine invertebrate and algal communities were conducted in eastern Haida Gwaii and the North Coast of British Columbia between September 2013 and August 2015. A total of 800 transects were visually surveyed by SCUBA divers and 848 drop camera deployments were completed. The presence or absence of 102 invertebrate and 59 algae species or species groups was documented during the SCUBA dives. The three dominant substrate types and their respective percentages were recorded for both dives surveys and drop camera deployments. The purpose of these surveys was to document substrate types and associated algae and marine invertebrate species in order to map benthic habitat along the nearshore region of the British Columbia coast"--Abstract, p. vi.
