sponge reefs
This dataset represents available spatial information about the distribution of sponge reef habitats in Pacific Canada. The biogenic habitat is represented as polygon features. The sponge reef features were compiled by Dunham (2018) from features mapped by NRCan and Fisheries and Oceans Canada. The sponges are known to trap fine sediments, forming large bioherms or reef mounds over the span of centuries (Dunham, 2018); therefore, sponge reef areas are assumed to have soft substrate.
