High‐resolution habitat suitability modelling can improve conservation of vulnerable marine ecosystems in the deep sea
Aim The distribution of vulnerable marine ecosystems in the deep sea is poorly understood.
This has led to the emergence of modelling methods to predict the occurrence of suitable …
