The benthos data from the Spanish-Namibian surveys are available from the Ocean Biodiversity Information System (OBIS) at https://www.gbif.org/dataset/c3fa13f7-14bd-4f14-9bd5-4f959860f63b. The ROMS-AGRIF model used in this study is now frozen and replaced by the CROCO project (https://www.croco-ocean.org/history/). The CROCO model includes all the functionalities of ROMS_AGRIF and added additional features (e.g., non-hydrostatic kernel). The tidal forcing data (OTIS-TPXO) and atmospheric forcing data (COADS) can be downloaded from https://www.croco-ocean.org/download/.This study investigates near-bottom currents and physical processes from simulations with the hydrodynamic model ROMS-AGRIF at two seamounts of the northeast Walvis Ridge to obtain valuable insights about drivers of observed occurrences of benthic suspension feeders (cnidarians and sponges) in this data-poor area. The spatial resolution in each model area was increased across two levels of nested grids from 1,500 m to 500 m resolution with 32 stretched terrain-following (s-) layers in the vertical with high resolution close to the bottom. The parent grids receive initial and boundary conditions from the basin-scale model INALT20 and from solutions of the OTIS inverse tidal model. The model topography is based on GEBCO data with local refinements from multi-beam data collected during different surveys in 2008, 2009, and 2010. Increasing model resolution is an important advancement for precisely evaluating the intrinsic dynamics within challenging rough terrain. We examined how near-bottom currents vary over space and time and investigated potential links between observed Cnidarian and Porifera occurrences and ranges of physical variables and processes. We identified a close link between physical processes and species distributions and suggested that physical processes such as kinetic energy dissipation and internal wave dynamics may be considered in future research as proxies of food supply to benthic suspension feeders. Such mechanistic variables may also be used to supplement more traditional descriptors such as water mass and terrain properties in species distribution models, thus enhancing our ability to predict the occurrence of benthic communities characterized by cnidarians and sponges.This study has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme under grant agreement no. 818123 (iAtlantic).
