dc.description.abstract	Sarasota County and Mote Marine Laboratory have collaborated to develop biological indicators for tidal creeks. To accomplish this project, Mote developed and applied the prototype index to 16 tidal creeks in Sarasota County, Florida. This report addresses Task 6A of the effort. In order to have an independent standard for the evaluation of the creek index, a one-time only collection of benthic infauna was made at each creek during the index field effort. This report presents the results of the benthic study and compares benthic findings to the Tidal Creek Condition Index.	en_US
