Research & Monitoring

The Grand Bay NERR serves as a living laboratory for the study of coastal ecosystems, including wet pine savanna and emergent tidal marsh. 

The GNDNERR is approximately 18,000 acres and contains pine savannas, salt marshes, salt pannes, bays, and bayous as well as a variety of terrestrial habitats that are unique to the coastal zone. Because Grand Bay is an intact estuarine to upland ecosystem, the GNDNERR is used as a reference site for many research projects.
