摘要: Abstract Pacific sand lance (Ammodytes hexapterus), an important prey species for many vertebrate predators in the northeast Pacific, lacks a swim bladder and relies on coarse substrates to bury overnight during winter. Surprisingly little information is available describing spatial distribution extent of its burying habitat along British Columbia coast. Thus, suitability model was developed Strait Georgia that considered shallow depths (
