Seabed sediments (genesis), overview

This data set contains the distribution of seabed sediments classified after genesis in mapped areas on the Norwegian shelf. The superficial deposit surface type describes the superficial deposits genesis. The data is based on the contents of the Quaternary map which are analogous (scale 1: 250,000 to 1: 500,000), or based on digital data from modern surveying.

Purpose

Knowledge about the seabed sediments is necessary for understanding processes in the marine environment, and knowledge about the distribution of seabed sediments is important for the best possible management of marine areas and resources.
