Transferable, predictive models of benthic communities informs marine spatial planning in a remote and data‐poor region

Abstract Systematic conservation planning requires spatial information on biodiversity. Such information is often unavailable, forcing spatial planning to rely on assumed relationships between species and environmental features. This problem is particularly acute in large, remote marine protected ar...
