NMFS - Southwest Florida Benthic Habitat 1991 877

Content Description

Abstract: The Southwest Florida Nearshore Benthic Habitat Study was designed to provide information on habitats and sessile biota in shallow water along the southwest Florida coast (Continental Shelf Associates, Inc. 1989). Seagrass and corals were mapped from the Florida Keys north to the Charlotte Harbor region, including parts of Florida Bay. This layer was digitized with ArcView 3.2a software and a ClaComp DrawingBoard III from the hard copy map supplied with the report. The map was modified to a non-projected format with coordinates in decimal degrees.
