Description:

Successful restoration of mesophotic and deep benthic communities (MDBC) impacted by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill requires knowledge on the distribution, abundance, and status of these communities. Only a small fraction of mesophotic and deep benthic habitats in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM) have been surveyed using mapping and ground-truthing methods. Furthermore, existing predictive habitat models that characterize the distribution and abundance of MDBC need to be validated. Knowledge of MDBC habitat requires coordinated mapping and ground-truthing campaigns, whose data feed into predictive habitat models that guide further investigation and restoration activities. We convened a workshop series with subject matter experts to present on, discuss, and address gaps in criteria for sensor selection, standards for operations, and best practices to help develop a coordinated mapping, ground-truthing, and modeling approach. The workshop series occurred in December 2021 and consisted of three coordinated sessions for mapping, ground-truthing, and modeling that collectively reviewed the state of the science, identified information gaps, and defined suggested approaches.
