Jamaica Beach Projects 1982-1993

We used data from 1984 samples taken approximately monthly over 11 yrs (1982 to 1993) with a drop trap sampler that sampled an area of 2.6 m2 to quantify and compare nekton densities along Spartina alterniflora marsh-edge and adjacent shallow nonvegetated bottom in Carancahua Cove, Galveston Bay estuary, Texas, USA. We also used a Geographic Information System (GIS), aerial photography, and population models to track changes in wetland area and trends in fishery populations over time.
