1992
Bowen, Marcia | Small, Mary
This study was undertaken to review existing methods for evaluating coastal habitats methods presently in use or in development were examined and evaluated in terms of the type of information needed, the level of expertise and studies required, the amount of time and costs involved in the determination, and form of output. No single method was found that could be used on a nationwide basis for all coastal habitats. Most methods were specific to a single habitat or evaluated a narrow suite of functions. Development of method(s) to evaluate disparate coastal habitat types would provide an essential tool for measuring the success of mitigation efforts and the functioning of coastal ecosystems.
