Delaware / New Jersey / Pennsylvania 2014 ESI BENTHIC Polygons
This data set contains sensitive biological resource data for submerged aquatic vegetation for Delaware/New Jersey/Pennsylvania. Vector polygons in this data set represent eelgrass (Zostera marina), widgeon grass (Ruppia maritima), and water celery (Vallisneria americana) distribution. Species specific abundance, seasonality, status, life history, and source information are stored in relational data tables (described below) designed to be used in conjunction with this spatial data layer. This data set comprises a portion of the ESI data for Delaware/New Jersey/Pennsylvania. ESI data characterize the marine and coastal environments and wildlife by their sensitivity to spilled oil. The ESI data include information for three main components: shoreline habitats, sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources. See also the HABITATS data layer, part of the larger Delaware/New Jersey/Pennsylvania ESI database, for additional habitat information.
