What is 'SAM'?

[quatermass]

In Tom's various PDf files (e.g. Volume 1, Issue 4) he talks about SAM.

But as he doesn't say what SAM is, I'm a little lost!

Can someone fill me in?

A 'search' doesn't want to work for small words.

Is there a Glossary on this site?

Thanks for that Peter.

SAM = Submersed Aquatic Macrophytes = Submersed Aquatic Plants?

Plant vs a macrophyte=> Chara, for most pratcial purposes is more like a plant than an alga.

Same with respect to most marine seaweeds, algae, kelps etc, they act more like aquatic plants and I'll generally refer to them as such.
