      <image:title>Transport and Fate of Bacterial Communities in Mississippi Coastal Ecosystems</image:title>
      <image:caption>Map of study area along Mississippi Coast. (A) We will principally focus on the major estuarine zones of Bay St. Louis, Biloxi Bay, and Pascagoula Bay because of their primary role and the land-ocean interface. The three bays span the width of the Mississippi coast and differ in their hydrological and ecological properties. (B) Bat St. Louis is fed by the Jourdan and Wolf Rivers. (C) Biloxi Bay is strongly influences by its urban setting and enclosed shape. (D) Pascagoula Bay receives inputs from the undammed and meandering Pascagoula River, is less influenced by urban inputs, and has an open shape that could promote ocean connectivity.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Estimated proportion of larval fate by site. Site abbreviations are as follows: Pass Christian (PC), Pass Marianne (PM), Telegraph (TG), St. Joe (SJ), Henderson Point (HP), Bay St. Louis (BL), and Between Bridges (BB). Bars of black color indicate successful metamorphosis; other colors represent unsuccessful metamorphosis for various reasons.</image:caption>
