Abstract

Wetland and aquatic habitats are essential biological components of the Galveston Bay Estuarine System. Understanding the spatial and temporal distribution of these habitats is critical if they are to be effectively protected and managed. This report presents results of an investigation sponsored by the Galveston Bay National Estuary Program (GBNEP) to determine the trends and status of wetlands and aquatic habitats in the Galveston Bay system through aerial photographic analysis supported by field surveys.
