Impact/Purpose:

The purpose of this activity is to increase awareness among resource managers, educators, and the public about the relationship between water quality and essential habitat.

Description:

This project will produce a GIS database and habitat maps of benthic substrates and biological assemblages within the Estero Bay Aquatic Preserve. A biological approach for identifying ambient water quality conditions will be developed. This will increase awareness among resource managers, educators, and the public about the relationship between water quality and essential habitat. Section 104(b)(3) will be supported through the distribution of the study results and conclusions.
