Geomorphology map of the Huon Australian Marine Park

The Huon Commonwealth Marine Reserve (CMR) covers a broad depth range from the inner continental shelf at about 70 m, to abyssal depths of more than 3000 m. The majority of the area is in deep water. The Tasman Seamounts Marine Reserve that was proclaimed in 1999 has been wholly incorporated into the Huon Commonwealth marine reserve. The reserve contains a cluster of seamounts that appear as cone-shaped submerged mountains, which provide a range of depths for a diversity of plants and animals.The peaks of many of the reserve's seamounts are between 750 m and 1000 m below the sea surface and support endemic species, including large erect corals and sponges. Some of the flora and fauna are hundreds and possibly thousands of years old, making them some of the longest-lived animals on Earth. The reserve also provides an important connection between seamounts of the Indian Ocean and the Tasman Sea.This map of the geomorphology of the Huon CMR was prepared for the NESP Marine Biodiversity Hub Theme D (1) project: National data collation, synthesis and visualisation to support sustainable use, management and monitoring of marine assets.

霍恩联邦海洋保护区（Huon Commonwealth Marine Reserve，CMR）覆盖的水深范围广泛，从近岸大陆架的约70米延伸至超过3000米的深渊地带，其中大部分区域为深水环境。1999年设立的塔斯曼海山海洋保护区已被完全纳入霍恩联邦海洋保护区。该保护区内分布着一群呈锥形的水下海山，这些海山提供了多样的水深环境，孕育了丰富的动植物群落。保护区内许多海山的峰顶位于海面以下750米至1000米之间，为特有物种（包括大型直立珊瑚和海绵）提供了栖息环境。其中部分动植物已存活数百年甚至上千年，是地球上寿命最长的生物之一。此外，该保护区还在印度洋海山与塔斯曼海海山之间起到了重要的连接作用。本霍恩联邦海洋保护区地貌图是为NESP海洋生物多样性中心D（1）主题项目——“支持海洋资产可持续利用、管理与监测的国家数据整理、综合及可视化”——所编制的。
