Data and code for Quantifying coastal ecosystem condition and trophic state index

This data file contains the data used to produce the manuscript "Quantifying coastal ecosystem condition and a trophic state index with a Bayesian analytical framework" The data were obtained from the National Coastal Condition Assessment (EPA) and from monitoring programs working near Boston, MA (Massachusetts Water Resource Authority - http://mwra.com).
