Values are based on non-metric multidimensional axis scores, weighted by biomass observed in otter trawl surveys. This product is the result of collating and analyzing fish stomach contents data from the North Atlantic and Arctic Oceans to classify fish into feeding guilds. The feeding guilds identified include planktivores, benthivores, bentho-piscivores, and piscivores. Non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) analysis was used to provide a more nuanced understanding of different predator feeding traits in relation to others. The NMDS analysis presents axis scores that offer a bounded data perspective, as opposed to categorical, of different predator feeding traits. This analysis is part of the process to classify feeding guilds based on predator stomach contents data.
