ZIP model predictions of median and maximum count, and associated depth and latitude ranges, and GAM model predictions of temperature for central California skate species/life stages throughout the study site.

N = number of hauls, m = meters, C = degrees Celcius, Max = maximum. Results were calculated from National Marine Fisheries Service–Northwest Fisheries Science Center trawl data collected during 2003–2010 among 235 tows throughout the study region. Common depth, temperature, and latitudinal range are included (see methods), as well as the depth and latitude at which the maximum number of skates were predicted.
