Distributions are recorded observations or models of mineral grain size, composition, and deposit thickness in a location or area, including maps of these resources derived through observations, interpreted data, remote sensing data, geologic maps, and hydrodynamic models. Assessments are evaluations of total mineral availability; models of present deposition, resuspension, erosion, or accretion; models of difficulty of extraction or relocation; and models of ecological and economic values. Predictions are the results of models or projections of future distributions, values, or ecological impacts of mineral resources; these data include predicted changes due to natural and human forces. Predictions are also the results of scenario-based models of resource losses, gains, or impacts on ecological or economic values under different management strategies (for example, mining, extraction, or relocation) or other human alterations."

Examples include seamounts, persistent upwelling zones, areas of low dissolved oxygen, and areas of reduced pH. Distributions are recorded observations of parameters and features, often as a function of time as well as place, also including maps and three-dimensional predictions of distributions based on combinations of observations and theory. Distributions of physical and chemical features (for example, physical habitat, substrate, or bathymetry) are often used as data to support habitat-biota models. Assessments provide information about the value, impact, drivers, connections, or functions of a feature in its present distributions, or they evaluate the effects of physical\/chemical features on ecology or suitability for use. Assessments can include climate change models that project environmental effects of climate change and acidification. Larger assessments that combine physical\/chemical features with other Resources and Uses categories can appropriately be included here and also in the other related Resources or Uses categories. Predictions are the results of models or projections of future distributions, values, or impacts, which include anticipated changes produced by natural and human processes, and they are also the results of scenario-testing models for comparing outcomes of different management actions."
