Conceptual diagram illustrating the changes that occur in an underwater ecosystem as the nutrient load increases.
Effect of nutrient loading on primary producers
Conceptual diagram illustrating the world's main coastal waterways.
Global distribution of coastal waterways
Conceptual diagram illustrating the elements that contribute towards a healthy lagoon that has a good balance of nutrient and biota, versus the elements of a eutrophic ecosystem, which includes increased sediment and nutrient from farming and industry, and creates for an unhealthy lagoon.
Healthy & eutrophic coastal lagoons
Conceptual diagram illustrating the overall eutrophic condition of coastal lagoons in the early 2000's.
Map of national coastal lagoon conditions
Conceptual diagram illustrating the differences in how barrier islands are formed along the shore. The structure of the island depends mainly on the balance between wave and tide energy.
Morphology of different barrier islands
