Purpose

The aim of this work is to map cold water coral habitats in submarine canyons of the bay of Biscay to gain better knowledge on deep-sea vulnerable marine habitats, follow their evolution, and propose management measures adapted to the preservation of their integrity.

Statement

The map was realized in 2013 within the framework of the CoralFish project and as part of an agreement between Ifremer and the Agence des Aires Marines Protégées. Mapping methodology is based on the processing and interpretation of images collected during the BOBECO cruise using the ROV Victor 6000.

Description

1/ DATAS: videos and images acquired with the ROV Victor 6000 during the BOBECO cruise (Legs 1 and 2).

Description

2/ OCEANOGRAPHIC CRUISE : the BOBECO cruise was conducted from 9/09/2011 to 11/10/2011 onboard the Pourquoi Pas ? research vessel, and led by the chief scientists Sophie Arnaud-Haond (Ifremer Brest, France) and Anthony Grehan (University of Galway, Irland)..

Description

3/ VIDEOS AND IMAGES PROCESSING : videos and images were annotated by Inge van den Beld, Jaime Davies and Brigitte Guillaumont using Adelie and Cover software. Cold-water coral habitats were described from images with the level 1 of CoralFish typology, published by Davies et al., 2017 (J.S. Davies, B. Guillaumont, F. Tempera, A. Vertino, L. Beuck, S.H. Ólafsdóttir, C.J. Smith, J.H. Fosså, I.M.J. van den Beld, A. Savini, A. Rengstorf, C. Bayle, J.-F. Bourillet, S. Arnaud-Haond, A. Grehan, A new classification scheme of European cold-water coral habitats: Implications for ecosystem-based management of the deep sea, In Deep Sea Research Part II: Topical Studies in Oceanography, Volume 145, 2017, Pages 102-109, ISSN 0967-0645, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.dsr2.2017.04.014 ).

Description

4/ DATA PROCESSING : habitats observations were exported to ArcGis and associated with the dives navigation. The result provided a habitat mapping (polylines) along the dive navigation, segmented by observations.

Description

5/ VALORISATION : this work was developed within the framework of Inge van den Beld’s PhD (Van Den Beld Inge, 2017. Habitats coralliens dans les canyons sous-marins du Golfe de Gascogne : distribution, écologie et vulnérabilité / Coral habitats in submarine canyons of the Bay of Biscay : distribution, ecology and vulnerability . PhD Thesis , Université de Bretagne occidentale).
