Fish and bivalves at Bolsa Chica Marsh re-establishment project: Progress report I
The primary purposes of the Bolsa Chica Marsh Re-establishment Project are to preserve and restore coastal wetland resources while providing for diversity of compatible public use of the area. The objectives of our fish and bivalve study are:1. Determine changes in the number of species of fish andbivalves before Phase I and during Phase I at BolsaChica Marsh.2. Determine if California Department of Fish and Game'spredicted benefits in Phase I were achieved by increasesin fish species.3. Determine influences of water management practices uponfish and bivalve composition.The objective to "determine if California Department of Fishand Game personnel's predicted benefits in Phase I were achieved by increases in fish species" could successfully be answered after the first collection of fish during Phase I. Sampling methods need to be refined. This will be an ongoing activity as this study progresses. The prognosis of successfully determining the study objectives is good.(15pp.)
