Summary presence/absence maps of macro-endobenthos in the greater North Sea, based on nearly 100,000 samples from 65 assembled monitoring data sets

Listed in European Marine Observation and Data Network (EMODnet) ERDDAP

The large databases of EMODNET Biology only store confirmed presences of species.

Description

However, when mapping species distribution, it is also important where the species did not occur: there is at least as much information in absences as in presences. Inferring absences from presence-only databases is difficult and always involves some guesswork.

In this product we have used as much meta-information as possible to guide us in inferring absences.
