Description
- Abstract: Submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) provides an important suite of
benefits to estuarine species: primary production, a source of habitat,
protection from predation, and food. SAV also provides essential
ecosystem services such as filtration, nutrient storage and cycling, and
recreational enjoyment. Differences in SAV habitat and substrate
within an estuary may have substantial effects on the distribution and
abundance of other estuarine species. Classification and
characterization of percent cover of SAV and substrate is critical in
mapping estuarine habitat to track changes over time.
