About TAMUG Microplastic Station

TAMUG Microplastic Station is a public boat ramp in Jackson County, Texas, on Carancahua Bay. From here SeaStatus scores 4 waters: Carancahua Bay, Fivemile Branch, East Carancahua Creek and Matagorda Bay (Area 1 of 4).

The main water here is Matagorda Bay (Area 1 of 4). Nearshore water is scored mostly on wind and wave height, with wave steepness and the tidal current counting too. A current running against the wind is treated as worse than either one alone. Tide predictions come from NOAA station 8773259, Port Lavaca, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 12.0 mi from this ramp.
