Service Description: In recent years, considerable attention has been focused on the effects of sea level rise in Tampa Bay, FL. Erosion and loss of habitat are concerning to public and private stakeholders. Living shorelines offer a great alternative to armored shorelines by providing natural materials that buffer wave action, absorb storm impacts, filter pollutants, and provide food and shelter for fish, shellfish, and wading birds. The Gulf of Mexico Alliance (GOMA) funded the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission: Fish and Wildlife Research Institute (FWRI) to apply the Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS) Living Shoreline Suitability Model (LSSM) to Tampa Bay, Florida. VIMS's LSSM has been successfully applied to other estuaries in the United States, including Chesapeake Bay shoreline in Middlesex County, Virginia, State of Connecticut's coastal shoreline, and Mobile Bay, Alabama.

Title: Tampa Bay LIving Shoreline Suitability Model Results
Author: Christopher Boland, GISP
Comments: In recent years, considerable attention has been focused on the effects of sea level rise in Tampa Bay, FL. Erosion and loss of habitat are concerning to public and private stakeholders. Living shorelines offer a great alternative to armored shorelines by providing natural materials that buffer wave action, absorb storm impacts, filter pollutants, and provide food and shelter for fish, shellfish, and wading birds.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission: Fish and Wildlife Research Institute (FWRI) applied the Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS) Living Shoreline Suitability Model (LSSM) to Tampa Bay, Florida. VIMS's LSSM has been successfully applied to other estuaries in the United States.
This dataset represents the shoreline of Tampa Bay, Florida divided into segments based upon user-defined environmental attributes that are used as inputs to the VIMS LSSM. It includes additional fields that were calculated as results of the LSSM. The output and the highlights of this dataset are the "ShoreBMP" and "UplandBMP" fields, which represent the recommended Best Management Practices for that segment of shoreline based upon the user-defined input variables.
Subject: This dataset was developed to proposed Living Shorelines Best Management Practices (BMPs) for shoreline segments in Tampa Bay, FL.
