Item Citizens' Pollution Prevention Handbook(Mississippi State University, 1997) Gulf of Mexico ProgramThe Gulf of Mexico Program Citizens' Pollution Prevention Hanndbook is a quick and easy-to-read reference guide to help you learn ways in which you can make a difference in protecting the environment of the Gulf. People who live, work, and play in the Gulf area -- beachgoers, boaters, students, sport and commercial fishermen, landowners, farmers, business owners, and coastal residents -- will find facts and figures that give a clear picture of the current environmental status of the Gulf. The handbook will create a deeper understanding of the impacts of personal and professional behavior on the Gulf environment and suggest ways in which you can take action toward eliminating pollution problems that threaten the Gulf of Mexico. We hope the information contained in this handbook is useful in preventing pollution in your home and at work. You can make a difference no matter who you are, or where you live.Item Historical freshwater inflow alteration and its potential effect on estuarine biota in Gulf of Mexico estuaries: workshop summary, Pensacola Beach, Florida, March 14-16, 1995(National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, 1995) Gulf of Mexico Program; US National Ocean Service Strategic Environmental Assessments DivisionIn cooperation with the Freshwater Inflow Committee of the US Environmental Protection Agency's Gulf of Mexico Program (GOMP), NOAA's Strategic Environmental Assessments (SEA) Division convened a workshop from March 14-16, 1995 to identify estuaries to examine important relationships among freshwater inflow alteration, estuarine habitat, and biological resources using information derived from the National Estuarine Inventory (NEI). Twenty-three Gulf scientists and estuarine resource managers participated in the workshop in Pensacola Beach, Florida. The primary goal was to identify and prioritize a subet of Gulf estuaries where freshwater inflow may potentially be managed to restore and/or enhance estuarine resources and habitat. Through a sequenced, consensus-building workshop process, five estuaries were selected that represent high-priority, freshwater-related habitat and resource issues across all Gulf estuaries. Plans are to conduct detailed, site-specific analyses for the five systems through the Freshwater Inflow Committee. This report summarizes the discussions and recommendations of the workshop participants, and provides a point of reference for the continuing evolution of the GOMP Freshwater Inflow Committee's long-term program.Item Proceedings of the First Gulf of Mexico Hypoxia Management Conference(United States Environmental Protection Agency, 1997-08) United States Environmental Protection Agency; Gulf of Mexico ProgramNo abstract available.Item Recognizing Wetlands in the Gulf of Mexico Region(Mississippi State University, 1997) Gulf of Mexico ProgramNo abstract available.
