The names listed include those applicable to the Chesapeake Bay, the Eastern and Gulf coasts and other national and international estuarine areas. Almost 100 individuals and their activities have been identified. The information was compiled from interviews with researchers, the scientific literature, data files and organizations. 4 ANNEX I Directory of Research Activities Submerged Aquatic Vegetation Altaway, D.
