Description:

Objective:

The overarching objective of this research project is to develop a suite of ecological indicators to rapidly assess the integrity and sustainability of wetlands in West Coast estuaries. This project involves the development of an integrated suite of indicators to evaluate the impacts of stressors across levels of biological organization, trophic structure, life stage, time, and space.
