Description: This shapefile contains the oyster reef data. Only Texas, Alabama, and Florida oyster data are included in the data. Louisiana & Mississippi data were not available in the format to show the geographical distribution; thus the true distribution of the oyster reefs along the northern Gulf of Mexico is underrepresented in the data.
Notes: FL section: Oyster polygons were extracted from NWFWMD Habitat coverage in the Apalachicola Bay and saved as a shapefile. The polygons with Mollusk, oyster reef or beds category were also extracted from the FMRI/NWRC nwgrass92 coverage and saved as a shapefile.
TX section: The oyster data (Oysters coverage) from the TPWD/TX A&M University downloaded from the TGLO web site required some cleaning up. Separate TPWD data files (Nr94 and N94) were used to replace the problematic area of the Oysters coverage because they seemed to be the source data for the Texas Oysters coverage (They are identical around the Corpus Christi Bay area). The polygons with non-oyster attribute data were also dropped from the Texas Oysters data. AL section: Alabama oyster reefs were created from the X & Y coordinates of ALDCNR oyster survey data in the ArcView. (1. The X & Y coordinates were saved as a point shapefile ("Add event theme"). 2. Oyster reef polygons were created using the point shapefile (XTools: "Make one polygon from points").) <a href='xml/NGoM_TNC_ERA_2000.pdf'

Description: This layer was created for the purpose of mapping viable marsh along the Northern Gulf of Mexico coast for conservation of the Saltmarsh Topminnow's (Fundulus Jenkinsi) preferred habitat. This shapefile is a conglomeration of data from the National Wetlands Inventory (1977 to present) and the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries vegetation/salinity study (2001).

Description: The Coastal Change Analysis Program (C-CAP) is developing a nationallystandardized database on land cover and habitat change in the coastalregions of the United States. C-CAP inventories wetland habitats andadjacent uplands and monitors changes inthese habitats on a 1 to 5 year cycle. The monitoring cycle will varyaccording to the rate and magnitude of change in each geographic region.Satellite imagery (primarily Landsat Thematic Mapper), aerialphotography, and field data are interpreted, classified, analyzed, andintegrated with other digital data in a geographic information system(GIS). The resulting land cover change databases are disseminated indigital form for use by anyone wishing to conduct geographic analysis inthe completed regions.Purpose: The Coastal Change Analysis Program (C-CAP) is designed to monitorchange in terrestrial land cover withincoastal environments of the United States including the Atlantic,Pacific, and Gulf of Mexico, the Great Lakes, Alaska, Hawaii, and allU.S. territories and possessions. C-CAP classifies types of land cover,wetland habitats, and adjacent uplands using remote sensing techniques(primarily satellite imagery and aerial photography). <a href='xml/ccap_2010_mosaic.xml'

Description: Salinity maps of estuarine habitat have been developed for all estuaries in the Gulf of Mexico. Each map consists of five depth-averaged salinity zones (0-0.5, 0.5-5, 5-15, 15-25, >25 parts per thousand) for four salinity (hydrographic) seasons (low, increasing, high, and decreasing). <a href='http://www.ncddc.noaa.gov/website/Metadata/ELMR_Salinity.html
