520 3 a| The Pamlico Sound estuarine system is a complex one, with human, physical, and biotic components. These components interact and are spatially linked with alterations of one component related to the others. The purpose of this study was to establish the temporal behavior of a physical component, salinity, and to relate this behavior to human and biotic components. From 1948-1981 salinity levels showed evidence of a gradual long term declining trend throughout most of the study area. This trend is not explainable in terms of climatic variation or other factors. During the same time period, anthropic drainage activities increased dramatically in lands adjacent to the study area. The spatial variation in salinity trends was found to have an areal association with the level of anthropic drainage impact. Additionally, the salinity and drainage factors were related, temporally and spatially, to the spatial displacement of oysters. Oyster displacement is an example of the biotic responses that often accompany salinity changes. A functional relationship exists between estuarine salinity, land use in adjacent areas, and estuarine biota. Spatial linkages exist in that alterations of land by man-made drainage are related to salinity and biotic changes at other locations.;

Summary	The Pamlico Sound estuarine system is a complex one, with human, physical, and biotic components. These components interact and are spatially linked with alterations of one component related to the others. The purpose of this study was to establish the temporal behavior of a physical component, salinity, and to relate this behavior to human and biotic components. From 1948-1981 salinity levels showed evidence of a gradual long term declining trend throughout most of the study area. This trend is not explainable in terms of climatic variation or other factors. During the same time period, anthropic drainage activities increased dramatically in lands adjacent to the study area. The spatial variation in salinity trends was found to have an areal association with the level of anthropic drainage impact. Additionally, the salinity and drainage factors were related, temporally and spatially, to the spatial displacement of oysters. Oyster displacement is an example of the biotic responses that often accompany salinity changes. A functional relationship exists between estuarine salinity, land use in adjacent areas, and estuarine biota. Spatial linkages exist in that alterations of land by man-made drainage are related to salinity and biotic changes at other locations.
