This product is built from two existing EMODnet data products. It uses the EUSeaMap product created by EMODNet Seabed Habitats (https://emodnet.ec.europa.eu/en/seabed-habitats#seabed-habitat-products) and the Presence/absence data of macrozoobenthos in the European Seas product created by EMODnet Biology (https://github.com/EMODnet/EMODnet-Biology-Benthos-European-Seas) to obtain lists of all macrobenthic species occurring in all EUNIS seabed habitat types (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpolbul.2012.10.010). For the purposes of this product the seabed habitat map is summarised on a grid at approx. 500m resolution, with each grid cell assigned to the dominant EUNIS code present within it. Summaries of benthic diversity are created for each grid cell, as well as more synthetic summaries by EUNIS category. The full matched benthos community data was written to file in the derived data folder as benthos_full_matched in parquet format with gzip compression.
