Description
The current final report will be for Christmas Bay Coastal Preserve because this system is the focus of the assessment in 2004 ... Benthos abundance, biomass, and diversity were measured to assess inflow effects on ecosystem productivity. In addition, relevant water quality variables (i.e., salinity, temperature, dissolved oxygen, nutrients, and chlorophyll) were measured during each sampling period to assess inflow effects on the overlying water, which affects benthos. Sampling was performed to continued a long-term study of two river estuaries (Brazos and Rio Grande), complete a 2-year study of Christmas Bay Coastal Preserve, and initiate a 3-year study of the Cedar Lakes and the San Bernard River Estuary.
