This dataset contains sediment, geochemistry, and benthic macroinvertebrate data from the seven Bureau of Economic Geology (BEG) Submerged Lands of Texas obtained from 1976-03-02 to 1981-05-30. The reports were broken down into seven areas: Beaumont-Port Arthur (1987), Galveston-Houston (1985), Bay City-Freeport (1988), Port Lavaca (1989), Corpus Christi (1983), Kingsville (1989), and Brownsville-Harlingen (1986). Data was collected from stations spaced approximately 1-mile apart within the bay and estuary systems and on the near shelf from 1976 through 1981.
