The Trinity River in Texas is not as well understood as many other major American rivers, and so its importance – even for the millions of people who depend upon it – is easy to underestimate. Nevertheless, the Trinity is the main contributor of fresh water to Galveston Bay, one of the largest and most important estuarial ecosystems in the United States. Along its path to the sea, the river sustains the lives of millions of people who live in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area, Houston and the heartland in between.
