Summary

Description

A 1.8 m diameter cylindrical drop trap was used to sample intertidal marsh habitat because the rigid structure of vegetation often precluded the use of throw traps. The drop trap is a fiberglass enclosure with a galvanized metal skirt along the bottom. The 1.8 m drop trap enclosed a 2.6 m2 area. Traps were deployed from a front-mounted boom on a boat.
