Nekton usage in a Caminda Bay Saltmarsh at Grand Isle Louisiana from 1988-07-26 to 1988-10-19 (NCEI Accession 0156840)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 02:45 AM | Dataset Last Updated: October 31, 2016 at 12:00 AM
This data set contains count, measurement, and weight information, when available, for Penaeid shrimp species. This data set also contains environmental, habitat, and vegetation data. The data was used to evaluate the use of the marsh surface by aquatic fauna on flood tides. Differences in animal densities between the marsh surface and non-vegetated marsh edge were compared and evaluated.
