Megafauna distribution predicted with random forest classification in the German contract area for polymetallic nodule mining, Clarion Clipperton Fracture Zone, Pacific

DOI

The dataset contains grid-files of the predicted probability of occurrence, respectively non-occurrence, predicted for the 68 morphotypes across the German contract area allocated to the German Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources (BGR) for the exploration of polymetallic nodules in the Clarion Clipperton Facture Zone, Pacific with random forest classification. All grid-files are saved in the standard format of the R-package "raster" (https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/raster/index.html) and contain 2 bands, the first being the predicted probability for absence and the second layer for presence of the specific morphotype.
