At the 1992 workshop, participants agreed that the St. Johns river Water Management District (SJRWMD) will complete the 1992 SAV inventory for the Lagoon system and that the analysis of factors causingSAV loss will be addressed by existing and proposed water quality monitoring programs. The last three task will be completed through the SAV Initiative. A consensus was reached at this workshop on the importance of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) in the Lagoon. PAR is a measure of light available for photosynthesis. All plants, including Submerged species such as seagrasses, require light to survive and flourish.
