Hotspot maps identify areas of high nearshore habitat richness, fish/invertebrate diversity, and biomass in Canada's Northern Shelf Bioregion. Data were derived from eight habitat features and DFO trawl and longline survey catch records, analyzed using the Getis-Ord G* tool in ArcGIS. The dataset was peer-reviewed by the Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat in 2017.
