Summary

Abstract: The Estuarine Living Marine Resources Program (ELMR) program is a developing
project to produce a comprehensive data base on the relative abundance,
distribution and life history characteristics of selected fish and
invertebrate species in estuaries throughout the contiguous United States. The
program utilizes a consistent sampling strategy that enables comparisons to be
