Abstract:

The need for a regional strategy to address the environmental problems resulting from port development in Tampa Bay was recognized as important for the improvement and protection of the Bay's resources. Data on the biological communities, computerized trends in biological and physical characteristics, and consequences of past mitigation projects are being used to develop mitigation options for important habitats in Tampa Bay.
