| Title: | ESI-PR67, Isla De Vieques, Puerto Rico 2000 (Environmental Sensitivity Index Map) |
| Entry Type: | Metadata Record. |
| Abstract: | Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) maps are an integral component in oil-spill contingency planning and assessment. They serve as a source of information in the event of an oil spill incident. ESI maps contain three types of information: shoreline habitats (classified according to their sensitivity to oiling), sensitive biological resources, and . . . |
