In general, soft substrates occur in the southern portion of the survey block, and continue to the west throughout the majority of block 116_0501n ( Figure 8 ).

Example of hard, complex rocky bottom, providing a habitat for basket star, white-plumed anemone and rockfish. Table 2. Distribution of bottom hardness for each sonar mosaic classified from survey HMPR-114-2004-02 and HMPR-116-2005-01. See Figure 1 for area locations.
