| dc.description.abstract | A database system from which design parameters could be developed for constructing ecologically functional marshes using dredged materials in Galveston Bay, Texas is proposed. A variety of habitat attributes was measured using field surveys and aerial photography to characterize three existing marshes (Atkinson Island, Hog Island, and Cedar Point) near a demonstration site. Animal densities among different types of intertidal and shallow subtidal habitats were also compared using a 1 cubic meter drop sampler to determine which habitat features of existing marshes should be constructed and tested in the demonstration marsh | en_US |
