The Washington State ShoreZone Inventory describes physical and biological characteristics of intertidal and shallow subtidal areas along Washington State 's saltwater shorelines. This synoptic inventory includes more than 50 habitat characteristics, including physical features such as shoreline type, vegetation types such as kelp and eelgrass, and anthropogenic features such as bulkheads. It has been used in a wide range of planning and research projects.
