Distribution of Suitable Habitats for Soft Corals (Alcyonacea) Based on Machine Learning

The soft coral order Alcyonacea is a common coral found in the deep sea and plays a crucial role in the deep-sea ecosystem. This study aims to predict the distribution of Alcyonacea in the western Pacific Ocean using four machine learning-based species distribution models. The performance of these m...
