Seabed sediments - Genesis

Seabed sediments (genesis) describes the geological processes behind deposition of the sediments in the uppermost 1-2 m of the seabed. The map is equivalent to Quaternary maps on land. The dataset series comprise three datasets: Seabed sediments (genesis), overview, Seabed sediments (genesis), regional and Seabed sediments (genesis), detailed. The three individual datasets are digitized in different scales and have different data coverage.

Purpose: Knowledge about the seabed sediments is necessary for understanding processes in the marine environment, and knowledge about the distribution of seabed sediments is important for the best possible management of marine areas and resources.

Spatial scope

National

Specific usage: The data of this dataset series can be used as basis for areal planning, environmental planning, habitat mapping, vulnerability analyzes, impact analysis in connection with installations on the seabed, location of aquaculture farms etc. Sediment maps classified by genesis provide details of past and present depositional environment and seabed conditions.
