 Only salinity was removed from the previously selected numerical attributes ($S^2 = 0.02146629$). This selection of attributes and data resulted in a data table containing 62 rows ($n=62$) and 18 columns (number of attributes). 
 
-From the IceAGE database, 14 attributes were selected. These consist of the geographical coordinates such as longitude (decimal) and latitude (decimal) taken at the beginning (see Figures \ref{fig:fig1}a and \ref{fig:fig1}b) and at the end of sampling. The increase in latitude, in particular, has been highlighted by several studies as being linked to the decline of marine biodiversity on a global scale \citep{lambshead_latitudinal_2000, gage_diversity_2004}. These geographic data are divided into five sectors across the seas around Iceland: the Denmark Strait ($n=28$), the Iceland Basin ($n=15$), the Irminger Basin ($n=12$), the Norwegian Sea ($n=4$), and the Norwegian Basin ($n=3$).

 Concerning the environmental attributes in this database, we included the depth (m) at the beginning (see Figure \ref{fig:fig1}c) and end of sampling as well as the temperature ($^\circ$C) (see Figure \ref{fig:fig1}d) and oxygen concentration (mg/L) (see Figure \ref{fig:fig1}e) of the water depending on the depth at which the specimens were sampled. These properties of water bodies are drivers of deep-sea biodiversity and biogeography, with oxygen being a limiting factor for living organisms \citep{keeling_ocean_2010}. In addition to these contributions, the increase in depth \citep{rex_global_2006,costello_marine_2017} and the decrease in water temperature at depth \citep{lambshead_latitudinal_2000} are also driving forces in the loss of marine biodiversity on a global scale.
