Abstract:

This paper evaluates the potential use of histopathology in determining the health of wild fish relative to the quality of the water in which the fish are residents. This paper examines the use of experimentally derived data to validate field observations and to provide information that can be of use to administrators in deriving management strategies to protect coastal and ocean systems.
