Habitat parameterisation used to define the environmental envelope of mesozooplankton in the North Atlantic Ocean, where CHL and gradCHL are the sea surface chlorophyll-a content and horizontal gradient from the MODIS-Aqua sensor, respectively.

Parameter values for mesozooplankton suitable habitat	Minimum value	Intermediate value	Maximum value
CHL (mg m−3)	0.097*	N/A	11.246*
gradCHL (mg m−3 km−1)	0.00022*	0.0115**	N/A
