Habitat suitability models reveal extensive distribution of deep warm-water coral frameworks in the Red Sea
Abstract Deep-sea coral frameworks are understudied in the Red Sea, where conditions in the deep are conspicuously warm and saline compared to other basins. Habitat suitability models can be used to predict the distribution pattern of species or assemblages where direct observation is difficult. Her...
