GO-FISH: Geolocated Ocean-Fishery Identified Spawning Habitats

<p>This dataset represents&nbsp;geocoded spawning regions for 1,045 marine fish species described in the Fishbase (https://www.fishbase.se/)&nbsp;and Science and Conservation of Fish Aggregations (SCRFA, <a href="https://www.scrfa.org/database/">https://www.scrfa.org/database/</a>) datasets. These global databases have painstakingly aggregated the fieldwork of countless biologists and ecologists to summarize our knowledge of fish species. We further constrained geographic locations using AquaMaps (<a href="https://www.aquamaps.org/">https://www.aquamaps.org</a>) to produce 2,931 polygons or groups of polygons, which we call "spawning regions".</p> <p>Reproduction code for the dataset is available at <a href="https://github.com/openmodels/spawning-dataset">https://github.com/openmodels/spawning-dataset</a>, archived at <a href="../records/11098955">https://zenodo.org/records/11098955</a>.</p>
