Predictor variables and sedimentation rate samples used to predict sedimentation rates within the Baltic Sea from 1992 - 2017

Input data used to predict sedimentation rate for the Baltic Sea. Observation data includes: Sedimentation rate data derived from isotope 137Cs tracers and pseudo-samples of zero sedimentation rate randomly placed in areas of rocky habitat. Sixteen predictor variables were considered for use in the sedimentation rate model. These were: Bathymetric Position Index (at three neighbourhood sizes); the Standard Deviation of bathymetry (at three neighbourhood sizes); Distance from Rivers (three layers representing different river catchment sizes); Substrate class (developed at a 1:1,000,000 scale for the Baltic Sea, classified to Folk5 level); satellite derived estimate for Suspended Particulate Matter in the water column (a winter and summer layer); Orbital Velocity at the seabed (a winter and summer layer); and Current Speed (a winter and summer layer).
