Hand-digitized ditches in NWI emergent wetlands from Maine to Virginia
Peck, E.K., Walker, J.E., Woodruff, J.D., and Ganju, N.K., (2024)
Salt marshes of the Northeastern United States (Maine to Virginia) are vulnerable to loss given their history of intensive human alteration. One direct human modification – ditching – was common across the Northeast for salt hay farming since European Colonization and for mosquito control in the first half of the 20th century. We hand-digitized linear ditches across Northeastern intertidal emergent wetlands from contemporary aerial imagery within the bounds of the National Wetland Inventory’s Estuarine Intertidal Emergent Wetland areas.
Northeast USA Tidal Wetland Accretion and Elevation Change
Cook, T.L., Autery, M., Woodruff, J.D., and Yellen, B. (2023)
This web app displays data on vertical accretion rates and changes in elevation of salt marshes in the northeastern US (Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, and Rhode Island) as compiled from published studies and publicly available data sets.
Database of Sediment Accretion and Elevation Change Rates for Coastal Marshes of Northeastern United States, Derived from Studies Published from 1975 through 2022
Cook, T.L., Autery, M., Woodruff, J.D., and Yellen, B. (2023)
Database of Sediment Mass Accumulation for Coastal Marshes of Northeastern United States from Sediment Trap Deployments during 2020 and 2021
Woodruff, J.D., Yellen, B., Cook, T.L., Baranes, H., Griswold, F., and Autery, M., (2023)
Northeast US Blue Carbon Rasters
Yellen, Brian; Yu, Qian; Teng, Wenxiu (2023)
This data set includes rasters of tidal marsh soil properties in the Northeast US for the purpose of blue carbon accounting. Mapping products cover estuarine and emergent wetland classes in the National Wetlands Inventory.
Hudson River Estuary Tidal Marsh Sediment Data
Yellen, B. & Woodruff, J.D. (2020)
This repository contains data from sediment cores collected at six tidal wetland complexes that are located within the Hudson River Estuary. The sites include Stockport Marsh, Esopus Delta, Tivoli North Bay, Tivoli South Bay, Vanderburgh Cove, and Iona Island Marsh.
Dam Impoundments Sediment Mass – Tributaries to the Hudson River
Yellen, B. & Woodruff, J.D. (2020)
This repository contains data from sediment cores collected during 2017-2018 from 17 impoundments that are located on tributaries to the tidal portion of the Hudson River as part of a larger NERRs collaborative project entitled Dams and Sediment on the Hudson (DaSH).
Massachusetts Beach Grain Size and Slope Data
Woodruff, J.D., Venti, N., Mabee, S., DiTroia, A., Beach, D. (2020)
This data repository contains grain size and beach face slope data from approximately 100 paired summer and winter transects collected along 18 separate beaches in southern New England.
