This data set contains known biotic attributes for tidal estuarine areas south of the Columbia river. Tidal areas where the biotic characterization is unknown are marked as "unclassified". A lack of classification for an area is not an indicator of a lack of biotic community, rather it indicates that more data is required, and /or a field visit is warranted.
