All areas in the Alabama Coastal Zone of less than 10 feet elevation above sea level, up to the fork of the Tombigbee and Alabama Rivers, were included in the inventory. Habitat boundary delineations were based on aerial photographs from 1979 and 1980, with transects by boat or foot for field verification in 1980-1982. Dataset includes habitat type classifications based on species compositions, and identifications of dominant species at each location. To determine the extent and composition of wetlands and submerged grassbeds as a baseline for preservation and development planning in Alabama's coastal zone. completed historicalArchive NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information ncei.info@noaa.gov https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/contact HTTPS NCEI Contact Information Information for contacts at NCEI. information pointOfContact asNeeded https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/metadata/landing-page/bin/gfx?id=gov.noaa.nodc:0161311 Preview graphic PNG 0161311 NCEI ACCESSION NUMBER 2017-02-25 publication biological data HABITAT SPECIES IDENTIFICATION theme NODC DATA TYPES THESAURUS photograph instrument NODC INSTRUMENT TYPES THESAURUS biological composition & location GIS product survey theme NODC OBSERVATION TYPES THESAURUS Dauphin Island Sea Lab dataCentre NODC SUBMITTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS Coastal Waters of Alabama Gulf of Mexico place NODC SEA AREA NAMES THESAURUS oceanography theme WMO_CategoryCode 2012-09-15 publication EARTH SCIENCE > BIOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION theme Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords 2026 revision 24 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Greenbelt MD https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords HTTPS GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.
