We also tested the shallow-water depth thresholds using data from the Virginia Mainstem of Chesapeake Bay and the Southern Branch of the Elizabeth River. These two polyhaline regions are characterized as having the best and worst benthic community condition in Chesapeake Bay. At the scale of the...
stretching approximately 200 miles in length. It has an average depth of 21 feet and contains over 15 trillion gallons of water. Chesapeake Bay is believed to have formed approximately 12,000 years ago when the Susquehanna River valley was flooded by melting glaciers. Chesapeake Bay is named aft...
THE CHESAPEAKE BAY'S11,684 miles of shoreline are packed with great places to drop the anchor, turn off your engine and kick back to enjoy the view. Whether you're seeking a place to take a refreshing dip in the water, drop a line to catch dinner, hook up with friends or take the ...
At the water quality station, we have been stirring up a lot of discussion on recent flooding events and how they affect the turbidity of the Chesapeake Bay and the Rhode River. Thanks to NASA Earth Observatory, we have satellite images of the Bay before and right after the heavy rain and...
The second data set was acquired about 20-km southeast of the bay mouth, where the plume bulges horizontally outward over the continental shelf. These measurements show a 9-m-deep frontal head (in water depth of 18 m) that ultimately dissipates during early flood tide. In both sets of ...
SAV (Submerged Aquatic Vegetation) What are they?-Submerged aquatic vegetation a.k.a underwater plants. How do SAVs help the Bay? They are nurseries, food, and they trap sediment for the Bay. thermocline when temperature varies in depth關於...
Using spectral methods for characterization, we find that the short-wavelength magnetic anomaly amplitudes are greatest within the shallow Choptank River inflow area (less than 10 m water depth), but are absent over a paleochannel carved during the last glacial maximum (LGM) with a present-day ...

The supervisors were still not told the October inspection by the septic system experts showed the septic system was discharging into the groundwater which was at the depth of the drainfield chambers. (The drainfield is under the parking lot.) There is also no record that the board knew the...
