Benthic habitats are an important component of the marine realm, being this evident by the key role of their associated macrofauna on the marine food webs. Their characterization and mapping assume special relevance in marine ecosystem studies. The main aims of this work were to combine traditional sampling methods with an acoustic remote sensing technique and developing novel modelling approaches, to detail and characterize the benthic habitats and associated macrofauna in the section of the Portuguese continental shelf north of Nazaré canyon. Covering an area of approximately 7000Km2, baseline sediment data and depth were obtained in 226 grab samples, 169 of which were used to study the macrofauna. Also, acoustic transects were run for mo...
