Paul, J F. COASTAL CONDITIONS IN THE VIRGINIAN PROVINCE (CAPE COD TO CAPE HENRY).
Description:
The U.S. EPA Environmental Monitoring and Assessment Program (EMAP) collected ecological condition data during 1990 through 1993 from the estuarine waters of the Virginian Biogeographic Province (Cape Henry to Cape Cod) to answer broad-scale questions on environmental conditions. Over the study period, sites were sampled to characterize the condition of ecological resources for four major watershed systems within the province (Chesapeake Bay, Delaware Bay, Hudson-Raritan system, and Long Island Sound), and three tidal rivers in Chesapeake Bay (Potomac, Rappahannock, and James Rivers). Sampling for the Virginian Province was organized and managed by the National Health and Environmental Effects Research Laboratory's Atlantic Ecology Division.
