Description
We measured a variety of water column and sediment parameters in Little Bay and its major
tributary, Tule Creek, over the period from May 2008 to June 2010 in relation to seagrass
(Halodule wrightii) condition indices. These measurements were collected in an attempt to better
understand the Little Bay system and the factors that have contributed to the decline of seagrass
distribution in the Bay. Although the contracted period of study was for one year (ending March
2010), we present hydrographic data that was collected starting May 2008.
