Assessment of seagrass habitat and stability in Texas coastal waters

Project Description

University of Texas at Austin conduct seagrass monitoring along the entire Texas coast. Over 700 stations along the coast will be visited to measure abundance, canopy height, biomass, species composition, condition, sediment carbon storage, and water quality at seagrass sites. UT will also conduct dexperimental acoustic monitoring of seagrass productivity and biomass to observe sub-diurnal fluctuations.
