Public Beach Assessment Report Huntington Park, Anderson Park, And King-Lincoln Park City Of Newport News, Virginia, Donna A. Milligan, C. Scott Hardaway Jr., George R. Thomas
Public Beach Assessment Report Huntington Park, Anderson Park, And King-Lincoln Park City Of Newport News, Virginia, Donna A. Milligan, C. Scott Hardaway Jr., George R. Thomas
Reports
The City of Newport News has three public beaches within its limits: Huntington Park beach, Anderson Park beach, and King-Lincoln Park beach. Each beach and its associated park has undergone or is undergoing improvements. The purpose of this report is to assess the rates and patterns of beach change at these three public beaches. Field survey data, aerial photos, wave hindcasting data, and computer modelling were utilized for this report. The computer model used was RCPWAVE, a wave hydrodynamic model developed by the Corps of Engineers.

Hydrobiological Monitoring Program - Summary Report For The Lower Peace River And Charlotte Harbor, Environmental Quality Laboratory, Inc.
Reports
Unlike previous Long-Term Hydrobiological Monitoring Summary Reports, this document has been subdivided into three separate subsections to facilitate the reader in reviewing the large number of Tables and Figures contained within the overall text.
As required under the most recent Peace River Water Supply Facility WUP Permit (#2010420.01), this document summarizes and extends the findings reported previously regarding phytoplankton primary production and community structure at four salinity zones within the Lower Peace River and Upper Charlotte Harbor between 1983 and 1993. In addition, the taxonomic composition and structure of phytoplankton and zooplankton assemblages from samples collected, between 1988 and 1993, …

Seagrass And Caulerpa Monitoring In Hillsborough Bay Sixth Annual Report, City Of Tampa Department Of Sanitary Sewers
Seagrass And Caulerpa Monitoring In Hillsborough Bay Sixth Annual Report, City Of Tampa Department Of Sanitary Sewers
Reports
This is the sixth annual report to FDER to satisfy the requirements set forth in specific condition #14 of FDER construction permit DO29-1845321B.
The City of Tampa, Bay Study Group (BSG), has monitored the effects of sewage pollution abatement in Hillsborough Bay since 1976. Within the last decade, water quality improvements and evidence of minor seagrass revegetation in Hillsborough Bay prompted the BSG to initiate a seagrass study to compliment other programs assessing the environmental status of Hillsborough Bay.

State Of Tampa Bay 1994, Tampa Bay Regional Planning Council (Tbrpc), Agency On Bay Management
Reports
This is the eighth "State of Tampa Bay" report on the projects, programs and organizations that influence the Bay and its watershed . This status report identifies the condition of Tampa Bay over the past year and describes activities and issues addressed by the Tampa Bay Regional Planning Council's Agency on Bay Management during 1994. It was prepared in accordance with the adopted rules of the Agency , and this year is sponsored, in part, by the Tampa Bay National Estuary Program.

Modeling Cumulative Impacts And The Carrying Capacity Of Small Tidal Creeks And Inlets, Bruce J. Neilson, Carl H. Hershner, Megan K. Greiner
Reports
The purpose of this project was to identify pollutant loading values which might be used as input for a series of water quality models applied to small tidal creeks and inlets in Virginia's coastal plain. The intent was to identify values from literature sources which might be used in application of the models, absent better or more site specific information. Estimates of biological oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand and fecal coliform loadings were of specific interest.

Locally Weighted Polynomial Regression: Parameter Choice And Application To Forecasts Of The Great Salt Lake, Upmanu Lall, Young-Ii Moon, Ken Bosworth
Locally Weighted Polynomial Regression: Parameter Choice And Application To Forecasts Of The Great Salt Lake, Upmanu Lall, Young-Ii Moon, Ken Bosworth
Reports
Relationships between hydrologic variables are often nonlinear. Usually the functional form of such a relationship is not known a priori. A multivariate, nonparametric regression methodology is provided here for approximating the underlying regression function using locally veighted polynomials. Locally weighted polynomials consider the approximation of the target function through a Taylor series expansion of the function in the neighborhood of the point of estimate. Cross validatory procedures for the selection of the size of the neighborhood over which this approximation should take place, and for the order of the local polynomial to use are provided and shown for some simple …
Investigation And Long-Term Monitoring Of Phragmites Australis Within Virginia's Constructed Wetland Sites : Final Report, Kirk J. Havens, Walter I. Priest Iii, Harry Berquist
Investigation And Long-Term Monitoring Of Phragmites Australis Within Virginia's Constructed Wetland Sites : Final Report, Kirk J. Havens, Walter I. Priest Iii, Harry Berquist
Reports
The use of constructed wetlands to replace natural wetlands is becoming pandemic. An investigation using Global Positioning System technology to map the vegetated communities of fifteen of the largest constructed wetlands in Virginia reveals that 80% are colonized by the invasive species, Phragmites australis Trin., and/or aggressive species, Typha spp. Tidally influenced wetlands that have subtidal perimeter ditches have significantly less (p<0.05) P. australis in the wetland interior than those without perimeter ditches. Fractured regression analyses show that 6-years after constructionP. australis invasion can be extensive. Linear regression analysis suggests that, if conditions remain favorable for P. australis colonization, constructed wetlands could be overrun in 40 years.

Regulating The Blue Crab, Callinectes Sapidus, Fishery In Virginia : Biological And Economic Concerns, James E. Kirkley, William D. Dupaul, Michael J. Oesterling
Reports
The blue crab, Callinectes sapiclus, fishery has been one of the most important fisheries of Virginia. The importance of the fishery in terms of commercial activities has substantially increased in recent years in response to declining resource levels of American Oyster, Crassostrea virginica, and a growing international and domestic demand for soft crabs, female hard crabs, and crab meat.
The actual economic importance of the fishery, however, is not well known. For example, what are the employment and earning levels generated by the fishery? What portion of a waterman's household income is derived from crabbing? How much does crabbing contribute …
