Description:
Abstract:
Coverage showing the location of marshes in and around Humboldt Bay, northern California.
Purpose:
Coverage is intended to show the amount of land covered by marshes, a type of wetland, in 1944.
Supplemental_Information:
Wetland designation was not a goal of the original cartographers. This coverage inherits the same assumptions made on the original map.
