A biotope analysis of Strangford lough was conducted in 2015 as part of efforts to understand the distribution and extent of benthic habitats and associated marine life within this waterbody incorporating new and historical groundtruthing information alongside modern acoustic data.The analysis was conducted on both the main lough and the "Narrows" to the south. This dataset comprises the biotope complex output of the southern narrows. The map was originally presented in the Marine Habitat Classification for Britain & Ireland (http://jncc.defra.gov.uk/MarineHabitatClassification). This has been translated to the EUNIS habitat classification system for integration with other European datasets. For more information, see: AFBI, 2015. Bathymetric and Habitat Map for Strangford Lough (Special Area of Conservation and Marine Conservation Zone), Northern Ireland. Report to the Department of the Environment.
