Description:

"The Fish Bay Watershed has experienced significant development within the last 30 - 40 years, and this has induced a growth of the road network within the watershed. Previous research on St. John has shown that unpaved roads can erode at rates that are up to 10,000 times higher than erosion rates on undisturbed hillslopes (Ramos-Scharr°on and MacDonald 2007a), and that they are currently a dominant source of the terrestrial sediment entering Fish Bay (Anderson and MacDonald 1998; Ramos-Scharr°on 2004). Therefore, the overarching theme of this project is to improve coral reef ecosystem condition in Fish Bay through an immediate and long-term reduction in sediment loading to the bay"--Executive summary.
