Description: Habitat Codes and DescriptionsBENTHIC (bh)HCANYON, Hard Canyons. Canyons with hard bottom substrate. These features are generally found along the continental slope. Depths are undefined;HDEEP, Hard Deep. These features are generally found at Depths 2000m and below. Substrate information was obtained from the hard category in BCMCA Atlas (2011);HHILL, Hard Hill. These features have summits of 500m or less above the seabed and are found at variable depths;HITDL, Hard Intertidal. These features are generally found at Intertidal depths of ~0m. Rock in 100m Deep substrate model (Fields et al., 2018), or Hard in BCMCA Atlas (2011) for areas where substrate information is not available in Murfitt data;HKNOLL, Hard Knoll. These features are generally found at depths that range from 500-1000m above seabed. Features from DFO Undersea Features (Manson, 2009). Substrate undefined;HSEAMT, Hard Seamount, . These features are generally found at depths 1000m and deeper. Seamounts >1000m, above the seabed, features from Du Preez (2020) CSAS in prep. Various depths; HSHLW, Hard Shallow. Hard bottom habitats found at 30m or less depth. Substrate information was obtained from the hard category in BCMCA Atlas (2011);HSHLF, Hard Shelf, Shelf (30-200m); Hard Shelf. Hard bottom habitats that range from 30m to 200m deep;HSLOPE, Hard Slope. Hard slope habitats range from 200-2000m deep. Substrate information was obtained from the hard category in BCMCA Atlas (2011);MCANYON, Mixed Canyon. Canyons that have a mix of soft and hard substrate at variable depths. MDEEP, Mixed Deep. These features are generally found at Depths 2000m and below. Mixed in 100m Deep substrate model (Fields et al., 2018);MITDL, Mixed Intertidal. These features are found at depths of approximately 0m and is a mixture of hard and soft substrate;MSEAMT, Mixed Seamount.

Habitat range from 200m to 2000m deep. Substrate information was obtained from the mixed category in the 100m deep substrate model (Fields et al., 2018);SCANYON, Soft Canyon; Canyons that have soft substrate at variable depths. SDEEP, Soft Deep. Habitats are found 2000m and deeper. Substrate information was obtained from the soft category in BCMCA Atlas (2011);SITDL, Soft Intertidal. Habitats found at Intertidal (~0m). Sand/mud in 100m Deep substrate model (Fields et al., 2018), or soft in BCMCA Atlas (2011) *areas where substrate information is not available in Murfitt data;SSEAMT, Soft Seamount Seamounts have summits of 1000m or more above the seabed. The features from Du Preez (2020) CSAS in prep. Substrate undefined;SSHLW, Soft Shallow. These features are found at depths 30m or less. Sand/mud in in 100m Deep substrate model (Fields et al., 2018), Soft in BCMCA Atlas (2011);SSHLF, Soft Shelf. These features are generally found at depths that range from 30m -200m. Substrate information was obtained from the hard category in BCMCA Atlas (2011);SSLOPE, Soft Slope. These features are generally found at depths that range between 200-2000m.
