Excerpt

Coastal wetlands are a highly productive and critical habitat for a number of plants, fish, shellfish, waterfowl, and other wildlife. Wetlands also provide flood damage protection, protection from storm and wave damage, water quality improvement through filtering of agricultural and industrial waste, and recharge of aquifers. After years of degradation due to dredge and fill operations, impoundments, urban development subsidence/erosion, toxic pollutants, entrophication, and sea-level rise, wetlands have finally begun to receive public attention and protection (Daiber, 1986). Heightened awareness of the value of wetlands has resulted in the need to better understand their function and importance and find ways to manage them more effectively. To accomplish this, at least two types of data are required: (1) information on the present distribution and abundance of wetlands; and (2) information on the trends of wetland losses and gains. …
