State of the Estuaries Report All Sorted by Year All Sorted by Author

The 2006 State of the Estuaries Report communicates the status of 12 out of the 34 environmental indicators tracked by the NHEP. For each of these key indicators it provides the reader with the associated NHEP management goal and an explanation of supporting data.

For some of the 12 indicators, additional information from supporting or related indicators is presented to further explain trends or to provide context for the primary indicators. This report is produced by the NHEP every three years to provide current information on the status and trends of a select group of environmental indicators from the coastal watershed and estuaries.

The report is intended to assist natural resource managers, local officials, conservation organizations, and the public to make informed management decisions and actions. Prior to developing the State of the Estuaries report, the NHEP published four technical data reports that describe all environmental indicators tracked by the NHEP. They are the Water Quality, Shellfish, Critical Habitats and Species, and Land Use and Development environmental indicator reports. Find a NHEP Publication
