Map of the local scale (25 km) survey region. Kelp plants were counted in 100 m segments which are represented by circular points along the coastline and scaled by the average number of kelp plants counted per segment over the duration of the time series. Average kelp forest canopy biomass for the period of interest is represented by green shading along the coastline and is scaled by average pixel (30 m × 30 m) biomass. Inset shows a representative stretch of coastline providing a more detailed view of the beach segments and kelp forest canopy.
