WERC Laumeister marsh figures
Detailed Description
The elevation histogram for Laumeister Marsh shows the marsh platform is above MHW on average (Fig. 1). Data from the vegetation surveys indicate moderate species richness (Fig. 2). Results from WARMER response model indicate that Laumeister will lose relative elevation as sea levels rise (Fig. 3). The marsh platform at Laumeister Marsh is projected to transition to low marsh habitat by 2070 but remain above mean sea level through 2100 (Fig. 4). The percent of time Laumeister Marsh is inundated varies throughout the year by season, with the most inundation during the winter (Fig. 5).
