In pbs-assess/PACea: An R package of Pacific ecosystem information to help facilitate an ecosystem approach to fisheries management

Polygons masking layers for BC waters

Description

Simple features objects of BCCM ROMS data, inshore, and offshore regions of BC Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) waters, and HOTSSea domain.

Usage

bccm_eez_poly

inshore_poly

offshore_poly

hotssea_poly

bccm_hotssea_poly

Format

A simple features polygon dataframe.

bccm_eez_poly

BC EEZ boundary witha 10km buffer and clipped with BCCM data output boundary

inshore_poly

inshore (continental shelf) region of bccm_eez_poly

offshore_poly

offshore (deep seafloor) region of bccm_eez_poly

hotssea_poly

Details

Bathymetric classifications were used to derive a line to separate continental shelf (inshore) and deep sea regions. Includes a 10km buffer around the EEZ and limited by BCCM data coverage.
