Instead, five manuscripts representing segments of the research presented in this report are in preparation for submission to refereed professional journals. The primary purpose of the final report is to integrate the various aspects of the research and to provide an outlet for the data that can be made available to other scientists."

Morphological features measured included: leaf area and numbers, epiphyte load, and seedling, vegetative turion and reproductive turion density. Biomass was measured for the benthic microflora, Zostera , epiphytes and associated litter. Zostera leaf production and export were measured by a modified Zieman technique. Primary production of Zostera and epiphytes was measured by the super(14)C method. Zostera biomass was maximum along all transects in July. Values ranged from 133 g dry weight per m super(2) (high intertidal) to 463 g dry weight per m super(2) (low intertidal). Primary production, as measured by the Zieman method, was maximum along all transects during the preceding month.}, keywords = {coastal processes, estuaries, marine plants, Zostera marina}, author = {Kentula, Mary E. and McIntire, C.
