Sea Floor Maps - Why do we care? Fisheries management, especially marine protected areas Characterization of benthic habitats and ecosystems Safe navigation and commerce Marine Spatial Planning Evaluating sites, offshore infrastructure (energy, aquaculture, etc.) Earthquake and tsunami sources – hazard assessment Baselines for monitoring change and ecosystem restoration Coastal processes; sediment and contaminant budgets and transport Regional sediment management, coastal erosion High-resolution grid for circulation and sediment transport modeling (e.g., inundation from storm surge or tsunamis) Public education and awareness

San Francisco Coastal Processes Natural and human-induced sediment transport and coastal erosion Establishing baselines and monitoring change -

Mapping supports modeling

Tsunami and storm inundation modeling and coastal change

Take home messages Success through partnerships and leveraging Seafloor mapping is foundational science Mapping has numerous important applications. Map once, use many times. You can’t manage it, monitor it, or model it, if you don’t know what the “it” is. Mapping saves $’s. It is more expensive not to map than it is to map. Essential for Marine Spatial Planning
