- •
Biomass of 10 bivalve species was modelled in the south-western Baltic Sea using RF.
- •
The RF-algorithm was able to reproduce the distribution pattern of these species.
- •
Three biomass hot-spot areas with different dominating species were detected.
- •
Salinity, water depths, substrate and food availability were the main drivers.
