Data Release: Long-term production trends in Taxodium distichum swamps at the northern range extreme in the Mississippi River Alluvial Valley, litter, 2002-2022 Data Release: Long-term production trends in Taxodium distichum swamps at the northern range extreme in the Mississippi River Alluvial Valley, litter, 2002-2022
An ability to discern shifts in plant production may be vital to suggest management in support of vegetation stressed by climate or land-use change. This work asked if the production of mixed baldcypress swamps (Taxodium distichum (L.) Rich.) changed over decades of study with one study conducted during the 1990s and the other from 2002-2022. In the current study from 2002 to 2022...
Data Release: Buttonland Swamp, roots, 2003 to 2022 Data Release: Buttonland Swamp, roots, 2003 to 2022
This dataset represents root bag data from Buttonland Swamp part of Cache River Watershed, Illinois from 2003 to 2022. The data includes root bag dimension data such as length, diameter and volume along with installation and collection information. This study resulted in biomass data for root production at eight different sites along the Cache River area. Water depth and salinity data...
Laboratory analysis of liver tissue and cells from mallard ducks (Anas platyrhynchos) after oral exposure to microcystin-LR, 2021 Laboratory analysis of liver tissue and cells from mallard ducks (Anas platyrhynchos) after oral exposure to microcystin-LR, 2021
With mortalities of avian wildlife sometimes inferred to be associated with exposure to harmful algal bloom events, the need for clarifying diagnostic parameters for helping to justify case diagnoses is needed. Hence, adult female mallard ducks (Anas platyrhynchos) were exposed to a controlled administration of microcystin-LR, and their liver cells were studied for biomarkers of exposure...
Mutli-temporal, fractional wetland area estimates from Landsat imagery for Caernarvon Freshwater Diversion and Davis Pond Freshwater Diversion outfall areas Mutli-temporal, fractional wetland area estimates from Landsat imagery for Caernarvon Freshwater Diversion and Davis Pond Freshwater Diversion outfall areas
These data are spatial estimates of fractional wetland area and were used to quantify wetland area change in the Davis Pond and Caernarvon Freshwater Diversion outfall areas during a 1984–2019 observation period. Trends in wetland area through time were fit using a penalized regression smooth spline. The trends are therefore generalized in time and are intended to present coarse spatial...
Model inputs and outputs used for the development of the Everglades Vulnerability Analysis (EVA) vegetation model Model inputs and outputs used for the development of the Everglades Vulnerability Analysis (EVA) vegetation model
Tools that accurately and reliably forecast potential ecological responses to both climate variability and natural resource management can improve the decision process, especially for landscapes where decision points occur iteratively across time. In the Everglades, natural resource practitioners use models and decision support tools to assist their evaluations of restoration progress...
Louisiana Barrier Island Comprehensive Monitoring Program – 2016–2021 habitat change, Chandeleur Islands Region Louisiana Barrier Island Comprehensive Monitoring Program – 2016–2021 habitat change, Chandeleur Islands Region
The Barrier Island Comprehensive Monitoring (BICM) program was developed by Louisiana’s Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority (CPRA) and is implemented as a component of the System Wide Assessment and Monitoring Program (SWAMP). The program uses both historical data and contemporary data collections to assess and monitor changes in the aerial and subaqueous extent of islands...
Large-Scale Marsh Creation Project – Upper Barataria Component Restoration (BA-0207) 2024 land-water classification Large-Scale Marsh Creation Project – Upper Barataria Component Restoration (BA-0207) 2024 land-water classification
The Louisiana State Legislature established the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act (CWPPRA) to conserve, restore, create and enhance Louisiana's coastal wetlands. Restoration plans developed under CWPPRA require evaluating the effectiveness of each project in achieving long-term solutions to coastal wetlands loss. This data set includes mosaicked aerial photographs...
Ecological model support for the Second Periodic CERP (Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan) Update (SPCU) and the Everglades Multispecies Programmatic Biological Assessment (EMSBA), 2026 Ecological model support for the Second Periodic CERP (Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan) Update (SPCU) and the Everglades Multispecies Programmatic Biological Assessment (EMSBA), 2026
Ecological models facilitate the evaluation of alternative approaches to restore the Greater Everglades ecosystem. However, the provision of useful and accessible models is a challenge because there is often a disconnect between model developers and model users such as natural resource managers and decision makers. Joint Ecosystem Modeling (JEM) meets this challenge by providing...
Suwannee River estuary juvenile Gulf sturgeon habitat use: February 2023 Suwannee River estuary juvenile Gulf sturgeon habitat use: February 2023
These data were collected as part of a larger Monitoring and Adaptive Management project, approved by the Open Ocean Trustee Implementation Group, investigating juvenile Gulf sturgeon (Acipenser desotoi) winter habitat use across the species' range to address data gaps in baseline status and conditions, restoration needs, and framework for monitoring restoration success. From 2020 to...
Data and code for a multi-species framework for corridor evaluation for species with different dispersal capacities Data and code for a multi-species framework for corridor evaluation for species with different dispersal capacities
We introduce a multi-species analytical approach to predict the potential effectiveness of corridors using the 'spatial absorbing Markov chain' (SAMC) framework. We applied this framework to the Florida Wildlife Corridor and contrasted four mammal species with varying dispersal capacity: fox squirrel (Sciurus niger), Florida black bear (Ursus americanus floridanus), white-tailed deer...
