Effects of coastal development on nearshore estuarine nekton communities

ABSTRACT: Coastal development affects estuarine resources by severing terrestrial–aquatic linkages, reducing shallow water habitats, and degrading ecosystem services, which is predicted to result in measurable declines in nekton community integrity. We assessed the effects of landscape features on n...
