Predicted carbon fluxes in Lake Maurepas swamp forests under various hydrologic and salinity regimes Predicted carbon fluxes in Lake Maurepas swamp forests under various hydrologic and salinity regimes
A process-driven biogeochemistry model, Wetland Carbon Assessment Tool - DeNitrification-DeComposition model (WCAT-DNDC) was validated and applied to examine the responses of daily net ecosystem exchange (NEE), net primary productivity (NPP), ecosystem respiration (ER), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions in the Lake Maurepas swamp forests under dry (2011), normal (2019), and...
Length and mass measurements for a clutch of Burmese python hatchlings from southern Florida including observations of multi-embryo eggs Length and mass measurements for a clutch of Burmese python hatchlings from southern Florida including observations of multi-embryo eggs
Demographic and morphological data from an adult female Burmese python and a clutch of hatchlings produced July 2024 in Big Cypress National Preserve in southern Florida.
Seagrass map, Cat Island, Mississippi, 2023 Seagrass map, Cat Island, Mississippi, 2023
This product depicts the spatial coverage of seagrass beds from 0.5-m color-infrared orthoimagery for Cat Island, Mississippi from early fall of 2023. Specifically, the map includes presence and absence of seagrass beds within a potential seagrass extent that was based on topobathymetric data. A minimum mapping unit of 4 square meters was used for this mapping effort. We did not have...
Do severe storms influence the survival of piping plover (Charadrius melodus) nests and broods? Do severe storms influence the survival of piping plover (Charadrius melodus) nests and broods?
Nest and brood survival data for piping plovers at Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge
The influence of local and landscape effects on Piping Plover nest daily survival rates The influence of local and landscape effects on Piping Plover nest daily survival rates
We examined the effects of local and landscape level metrics on Piping Plover (Charadrius melodus melodus) daily nest survival rates using a long-term dataset from coastal New Jersey. Local-level metrics thought to be important determinants of nest success were collected from 1993 to 2016. Landscape metrics were examined over a from 2006 to 2016.
Shorebird survey data from Cat and Ship Island, MS, 2012-2023 Shorebird survey data from Cat and Ship Island, MS, 2012-2023
This dataset contains shorebird survey data conducted before (pre) and after (post) barrier island restoration of Cat and Ship Island, Mississippi. The Mississippi barrier islands provide critical habitat for migratory and resident shorebirds, including many federally threatened and endangered (T&E) species. Long-term monitoring of shorebirds before and after restoration is essential to...
High-resolution land cover mapping along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts to enhance hurricane coastal impact models High-resolution land cover mapping along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts to enhance hurricane coastal impact models
To enhance hurricane coastal impact models, we developed 1-m land cover maps for the coastal portions of states along the Gulf of America and Atlantic coasts using recent (2018–2020) high-resolution orthoimagery and moderate-resolution land cover maps. Our first step was to develop land cover maps with three classes (vegetated, unvegetated, water) using recently acquired 1-m orthoimagery...
Louisiana Barrier Island Comprehensive Monitoring Program – 2021 habitat map, East Chenier Region Louisiana Barrier Island Comprehensive Monitoring Program – 2021 habitat map, East Chenier 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...

Benthic macroinfaunal community abundance, richness, and biomass data taken at the Mississippi barrier islands, 2010-2023 Benthic macroinfaunal community abundance, richness, and biomass data taken at the Mississippi barrier islands, 2010-2023
This dataset contains metrics of benthic assemblages taken before (pre) and after (post) barrier island restoration of the Mississippi Barrier Islands, which included sand placement on Cat and Ship Islands. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service considers the barrier islands along the Mississippi-Alabama coast as critical habitats for certain threated and endangered shorebird species...
