Water Level, Water Temperature, and Vegetation Biomass at the Nisqually River Delta, WA
March 28, 2025
This dataset contains water level, water temperature, and vegetation data from 12 locations within the Nisqually River Delta, Washington from 2010 to 2015. This dataset was part of a larger monitoring effort to document hydrological and vegetation changes throughout the Nisqually River Delta following large scale estuarine restoration (dike removal) in 2009.

Climate change is affecting coastal ecosystems worldwide as water temperatures increase, hydrologic regimes change, and sea levels rise. Consequently, estuaries risk declines in ecosystem functioning due to increasing temperatures and other hydrologic factors. Characterizing and predicting estuarine water temperature are challenging because these systems are highly dynamic. Statistical...
