Description: This data displays the predicted occurrence of benthic sediment types off southern New England. Input data sources include regional bathymetric data from acoustic surveys and seafloor sediment data from in-situ sampling (i.e., photos, grabs, cores). A maximum entropy (MaxEnt) model was used to predict the likelihood of specific sediment classes occurring at a given location using bathymetric characteristics. Sediment data were generalized into classes derived from the Coastal and Marine Ecological Classification Standard (CMECS), including Gravel, Gravel Mixes, Mixed Gravel Classes, Gravel and Mixed Gravel Classes, Gravelly, Sand, Sand-Mud Mix, Sand-Mud Mix & Mixed Gravel Classes, and Sand-Mud Mix with Gravel. For processing purposes, the study area was split into two sections: nearshore and offshore. This data displays the output from both the nearshore and offshore results, and combines the predicted probability and uncertainty data for five different sediment classes for each cell of the grid.
