It employs two settings (Aquatic and Biogeographic) and four components (Water Column, Geoform, Substrate and Biotic).  Combinations of these can describe any setting.  The State of Oregon is adopting it to replace the standard in the Oregon Estuary Plan Book (1987).  It is the definitive national standard for describing coastal and marine sites.},
