Spatial concordance between sponge grounds and maximum bottom current, FC subarea.

<p>The figure shows (A) sponge ground (Sp. Gr.) presence/absence observations and predictions of presence probability (pres. prob.), and (B) the distribution of maximum bottom current, for the FC subarea. Sponge grounds are primarily observed and predicted to exist in areas with high (>0.1 m/s) maximum bottom current.
