Good eye @mvisalli at catching the inconsistency between the layer values in the provided Harris and Whiteway (2009) class_11 ArcGIS raster vs. manuscript version.

This fix to the classification shouldn't affect analytical results thus far, just the dataset documentation (and interpretation) which can be updated here:

• bbnj/data.R at master · ecoquants/bbnj

which after running devtools::document() updates the documentation here:

• Raster stack for area (km2) of 1 thru 11 classes of benthic seascapes (Harris & Whiteway, 2009) — s_phys_scapes • bbnj

Updated documentation within R, but not html page: http://ecoquants.com/bbnj/reference/s_phys_scapes.html
