Biotopes
Biotopes are areas with distinctive benthic communities and a similar physical environment. Each biotope usually has a unique composition of species. The species are determined by the environmental conditions in the area. Four areas have so far been mapped and modeled separately: the Barents Sea (MAREANO-mapped areas), TromsIII / NordlandVII, NordlandVI and the Central Norwegian shelf. The goal is to harmonize these datasets and create a comprehensive biotope map for Norwegian sea areas.

- Purpose
-
Biotop data is an important knowledge and is very interesting for assessing vulnerability, species richness and uniqueness in an area. This is important information when designing management plans and other advice related to the use of the sea.

- Specific usage
-
The species living on the sea floor is not evenly distributed, but occur in patches related to various environmental and bottom types or habitats. This distribution is important to know in order to manage the seabed in the most sustainable way.

- Supplemental Information
-
The four areas wich so far have been mapped and modeled - Barents Sea (MAREANO-mapped areas), TromsIII / NordlandVII, NordlandVI and the Norwegian continental shelf in the Norwegian Sea - each have their own classifications of biotopes. Modelling is based on detailed digital bathymetry data, geological interpretations of seabed sediments, distribution of marine species and a number of hydrological parameters.
