Submerged grasses provide a variety of services, including habitat and water quality improvement. In the Mobile-Tensaw Delta, in upper Mobile Bay, as many as 24 species of these plants are known to occur. However, these habitats are declining globally. Our research at the University of South Alabama and Dauphin Island Sea Lab seeks to improve understanding of their ecology, conservation, and restoration.
