Recent Areal Expansion Of Seagrass Meadows In Tampa Bay, Florida: Real Bay Improvement Or Drought-Induced?, R. R. Lewis Iii, K. D. Haddad, J.O. R. Johansson

Reports

Johansson and Lewis have documented improvements in water quality apparently associated with concurrent improvements to sewage treatment, particularly at the City of Tampa's Hookers Point Sewage Treatment Plant. These improvements are at least partially responsible for the significant decreases in chlorophyll a and increase in water clarity documented in Hillsborough Bay and Middle Tampa Bay.

The Effects Of Sewage Pollution Abatement On Environmental Quality In Hillsborough Bay, Florida, Joseph J. Simon, Wen H. Huang

The data is still in more or less raw form, with little analyses or interpretation attempted to date.
