Tributaries of the Chesapeake Bay

Heather Moore Niver

The many streams and rivers that are part of the Chesapeake Bay watershed provide the freshwater that helps make the bay such a unique ecosystem. The brackish waters are home to lots of plants and animals that are a factor in keeping the bay healthy. However, the tributaries of the Chesapeake Bay can also have negative effects on the health of the bay if the water they feed to the bay is polluted. Readers will learn about the interconnectedness of the bay watershed as well as the importance of this estuary’s tributaries. Including a map of the key rivers flowing into the Chesapeake Bay, the main content will engage readers with the conservation conversation surrounding the bay in addition to its geography. Vivid photographs and detailed sidebars will further draw readers into the growing region surrounding the Chesapeake Bay.
