Full description

Dataset associated with the paper "Analysis of Progress Towards a Comprehensive System of Marine Protected Areas in Brazil”. Data was collected using data compilation within Arc GIS 10.2. The habitat maps were derived from three sources: a subtidal benthic 20 map, built using high-resolution bathymetry data (Becker et al. 2009), and maps of 21 coral reef habitat (Brasil 2006) and mangrove ecosystems (Magris & Barreto 2011). 22 Depth zones, mangrove, coral reef habitat and ecoregions were used to define benthic 23 habitats.​ Study region spans all Brazilian coast. Data was collected to evaluate the performance of the Marine Protected Areas regarding conservation objectives for representation and persistence.
