Nutrient Enrichment Studies Of Natural Phytoplankton Populations In The Lower Hillsborough River Conducted On October 10 - 13, 2005, The City Of Tampa Wastewater Department

Reports

The Bay Study Group (BSG) conducted nutrient enrichment studies (bioassays) on natural phytoplankton population samples collected at four locations in the Lower Hillsborough River on October 10, 2005. Test site HR1 was located approximately 320m upriver of the Rowlett Park Blvd. bridge (Lat: 28o 01.368’N; Lon: 82o 25.914’W), test site HR2 was located approximately 200m upriver of the Nebraska Ave. bridge (Lat: 28o 01.174’N; Lon: 82o 26.960’W), test site HR3 was located approximately 280m downriver of the Florida Ave. bridge (Lat: 28o 01.257’N; Lon: 82o 27.740’W), and test site HR4 was located approximately 20m upriver of the Sligh Ave. bridge …

Data Summary From The Tampa Bay Interagency Seagrass Monitoring Program Through Year 2004, Walt Avery, Roger Johansson

Reports

Results regarding seagrass species abundance, distribution, and zonation over time are presented for the 1997-2004 period in Hillsborough Bay (HB, Figures 16-27) and the 1998-2004 period for Old Tampa Bay (OTB, Figures 3-14), Middle Tampa Bay (MTB, Figures 29-41), Lower Tampa Bay, including Terra Ceia Bay (LTB, Figures 43-57), and Boca Ciega Bay (BCB, Figures 59-69). For each transect, results are presented in a graphic format illustrating annual species composition, abundance, and distribution. Seagrass abundance is presented as percent coverage within a square meter using the Braun Blanquet coverage class system.

Reports

This project is aimed at developing an understanding of detailed beach and dune change. During the course of this monitoring, Hurricane Isabel impacted the coastal plain of Virginia and significantly altered almost all Bay shorelines to one degree or another in September 2003. This is particularly true of shorelines facing north, east, and south since the winds shifted as the storm passed. This event provided an opportunity to measure the changes to natural dune systems around the Bay due to the storm as well as their recovery after the event.

Reports

Shoreline evolution is the change in shore position through time. In fact, it is the material resistance of the coastal geologic underpinnings against the impinging hydrodynamic (and aerodynamic) forces. Along the shores of Chesapeake Bay, it is a process-response system. The processes at work include winds, waves, tides and currents, which shape and modify coastlines by eroding, transporting and depositing sediments. The shore line is commonly plotted and measured to provide a rate of change but it is as important to understand the geomorphic patterns of change. Shore analysis provides the basis to know how a particular coast has changed …
