Predicted key dugong habitat - New Caledonia west coast

Shapefile of key dugong habitats predicted over the New Caledonia west coast. Dugong spatial intensity of use derived from 16 satellite-tagged individuals was modeled in relation with lagoon topographic variables and seagrass coverage. Intensity of use was predicted back over the gridded study area at 500 resolution and the highest 10 percent of predicted values was selected as "key dugong habitat".
