Habitat suitability map of Hesionura elongata community in the Belgian Part of the North Sea
The habitat suitability map (HSM) of the Hesionura elongata community is a map describing the likelihood of presence of the Hesionura elongata community from 0 to 100% across the Belgian Part of the North Sea. The Hesionura elongata community is a macrobethic species assemblage characteristics of the area. The map is the visualization of a species distribution modelling exercise which consisted in modelling the likelihood of presence of the specific macrobenthic community based on the environmental parameters available. The modelling exercise was performed using a large dataset of macrobenthos samples.

- Statement
-
The raw dataset consisted in macrobenthos samples collected between 1994 and 2018. The samples included species assemblages and environmental parameters that were classified in known communities by clustering analysis. The presence-absence dataset was used to develop an habitat suitability model with the method R-INLA SPDE. The habitat suitability model was used to project the probability of occurrence of the community over stacked environmental maps in R and QGIS.
