SCAR Biogeographic Atlas of the Southern Ocean - Porifera - Data

Dataset homepage

Citation

SCAR - AntOBIS: SCAR Biogeographic Atlas of the Southern Ocean - Porifera - Data https://doi.org/10.15468/iftudq accessed via GBIF.org on 2023-12-05.

Description

This dataset represents a literature study on the distribution of porifera in Antarctic and Sub-Antarctic waters. Dataset supplied in the framework of the SCAR Biogeographic Atlas of the Southern Ocean (BASO). The Biogeographic Atlas of the Southern Ocean is a collection of representative maps and syntheses on the distribution of the Southern Ocean organisms, providing a general overview of the biogeography of the Southern Ocean (s.l.) and a benchmark of current biogeographic knowledge at the end of the Census of Antarctic Marine Life. This updates the well-known and useful but largely outdated biogeographic Folios of the Antarctic Map Folio Series (American Geographical Society).
