Abstract

The Gulf of Carpentaria and Torres Strait in north-eastern Australia support globally significant seagrass ecosystems that underpin fishing and cultural heritage of the region. Reliable data on seagrass distribution are critical to understanding how these ecosystems are changing, while managing for resilience. Spatial data on seagrass have been collected since the early 1980s, but the early data were poorly curated. Some was not publicly available, and some already lost. We validated and synthesized historical seagrass spatial data to create a publicly available database. We include a site layer of 48,612 geolocated data points including information on seagrass presence/absence, sediment, collection date, and data custodian. We include a polygon layer with 641 individual seagrass meadows. Thirteen seagrass species are identified in depths ranging from intertidal to 38 m below mean sea level. Our synthesis includes scientific survey data from 1983 to 2022 and provides an important evidence base for marine resource management.

1983 - 2022年澳大利亚东北部、托雷斯海峡和卡本塔利亚湾海草空间数据综合
澳大利亚东北部的卡本塔利亚湾和托雷斯海峡支持着全球重要的海草生态系统,为该地区的渔业和文化遗产奠定了基础。关于海草分布的可靠数据对于了解这些生态系统如何变化以及管理恢复力至关重要。自20世纪80年代初以来,人们就开始收集海草的空间数据,但早期的数据整理得很差。有些没有公开,有些已经丢失。我们验证并综合了历史海草空间数据,创建了一个公开可用的数据库。我们包括一个包含48,612个地理位置数据点的站点层,包括海草存在/缺失,沉积物,收集日期和数据托管的信息。我们包括一个多边形层,有641个独立的海草草地。在潮间带至平均海平面以下38米的深度范围内发现了13种海草。本文综合了1983 - 2022年的科学调查数据,为海洋资源管理提供了重要的证据基础。

期刊介绍: Limnology and Oceanography Letters (LO-Letters) serves as a platform for communicating the latest innovative and trend-setting research in the aquatic sciences. Manuscripts submitted to LO-Letters are expected to present high-impact, cutting-edge results, discoveries, or conceptual developments across all areas of limnology and oceanography, including their integration. Selection criteria for manuscripts include their broad relevance to the field, strong empirical and conceptual foundations, succinct and elegant conclusions, and potential to advance knowledge in aquatic sciences.
