Description

1 v. (various pagings) : ill. ; 28 cm. Includes bibliographical references.,from the introduction, ". . .In the present study, a survey of the shellfish resources in the deep waters of the Peconic Estuary was undertaken in the fall of 1995 as part of the natural resources assessment for the Peconic Estuary Program. The goals of the study were to assess the status of shellfish resources in the deep waters of the Peconic Estuary and to obtain information on bottom type, the distribution and abundance of shellfish, and the distribution of other species, particularly shellfish predators. This survey complements and extends the earlier deep water survey carried out in the western part 1 of the Peconic Estuary by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation in 1979 and 1980.
