| source_abstract | The US and global Marine Biodiversity Observation Network (MBON) partnered with the US Integrated Ocean Observation System (IOOS), NOAA/OAR/AOML and NOAA/NESDIS/STAR to develop and routinely generate this Seascape Pelagic Habitat Classification product (MBON Seascapes) and make it available on CoastWatch. Derived from dynamic fields of satellite and modelled data, MBON Seascapes are classified and used as a biogeographical framework to describe dynamic, changing ocean habitats for MBON and other applications. MBON Seascapes provide information about the quality and extent of different oceanographic habitats or features and can be used to assess and predict the different planktonic and fisheries communities that reside within seascapes. Current MBON Seascapes products include monthly and 8-day time steps at 5 km resolution. High resolution (1 km) case studies are planned on a case by case basis through cooperation with US and global MBON partners. MBON Seascapes identifies spatially explicit water masses with particular biogeochemical features using a model and satellite-derived measurements. The seascape product is generated as monthly and 8-day composites at 5 km spatial resolution.
