All Clams on Deck
Tampa Bay, Sarasota Bay, and Charlotte Harbor are currently at risk of rapid declines in seagrass and wild clam populations. Restoring clam populations and seagrass meadows will result in improved water quality and healthier habitats for commercial and recreational fisheries – and people, too! The health of these habitats is critical not only for the ecosystem services they provide, but for the economic impact that results from Florida’s tourism.
