Research Project
Chesapeake Working Land and Seascapes
Working landscapes in the Chesapeake watershed offer a mosaic of habitats from fields to forests.
Oyster reefs occur along the edge of the salt marsh in Virginia's coastal bays.
Mapping is critical to the study of working land and seascapes.
Restoring oyster reefs is a key part of rebuilding the Chesapeake's working seascapes.
