Benthic Fauna and Hydrography at Four Sites in the Mobile-Tensaw River Delta, Alabama (1981-1982) (NCEI Accession 0173246)
Bimonthly surveys of benthic fauna were conducted at four sites in the Mobile-Tensaw River Delta from November 1981 to September 1982. Two sites were at the upper reaches of the river delta, and two were at the mouth. Fauna were enumerated and identified to lowest taxon possible. Hydrographic data were also collected, including temperature, conductivity, and dissolved oxygen.
