Abstract
This report deals with the biological productivity of a
unit of Nature, the Delaware River estuary. In many respects
this estuary and its productivity is similar to that of the
several other estuaries along the Atlantic coast of North
America, but each, like a person, has its own individual
characteristics. This productivity and related biological,
chemical, geological, and physical characteristics of the
Delaware River estuary are not known fully, yet they are being
studied and the descriptions and knowledge obtained each year
can be useful to those persons concerned with the best use of
our coastal areas.
