ROV assessment of mesophotic fish and associated habitats across the continental shelf of the Amathole region
Abstract Understanding how fish associate with habitats across marine landscapes is crucial to developing effective marine spatial planning (MSP) in an expanding and diversifying ocean economy. Globally, anthropogenic pressures impact the barely understood temperate mesophotic ecosystems and South A...
