Redalyc · Ciencias Marinas
The spatial distribution of benthic habitats in the Gulf of Batabanó obtained by remote sensing, using five images from the Landsat-7 Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+) satellite sensor, is reported for the first time. The map covers a total underwater area of 21,305 km2 and is presented at the 1:...

Se reporta por primera vez la distribución de los hábitats bentónicos en el Golfo de Batabanó obtenida por percepción remota utilizando cinco imágenes del sensor Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+) del satélite Landsat-7. El mapa se presenta a escala 1:250,000 y cubre un área sumergida de 21,305 km2. Utilizando técnicas de clasificación supervisada se identificaron y ubicaron cinco hábitats bentónicos dentro de esta área: pasto marino de densidad media a alta, pasto marino de baja densidad, arena con escasa vegetación, fango con escasa vegetación, y roca. Los pastos marinos cubren 64.85% (13,818 km2) del área total, y 35.15% (7,487 km2) corresponde al resto de los hábitats bentónicos con o sin vegetación escasa. Se consideraron tanto la vegetación submarina (pasto marino y macroalgas) como los tipos de sustratos. Los resultados fueron confirmados con mediciones in situ obtenidas a partir de cruceros de investigación entre los años 2003 y 2005. Este mapa representa una importante caracterización de las aguas de la plataforma cubana con el fin de comprender mejor estos ecosistemas, pudiéndose utilizar en un futuro en el análisis de detección de cambios para vigilar la salud de los hábitats bentónicos en el Golfo de Batabanó. |
