Remote sensing of three‐dimensional coral reef structure enhances predictive modeling of fish assemblages

Abstract LiDAR (light detection and ranging) allows for the quantification of three‐dimensional seascape structure, which is an important driver of coral reef communities. We hypothesized that three‐dimensional LiDAR‐derived covariables support more robust models of coral reef fish assemblages, comp...
