Long-term Ecosystem Dynamics in Coastal Lagoons of Perdido Bay, Florida: Seagrass Biomass (2000-present)

Dataset extent

As part of a comparison of benthic metabolic rates between bottom types (bare sediment vs. with seagrass patches) within and across three lagoonal environments in Perdido Bay, Florida, seagrass biomass has been measured as ash-free dry weight for both above and below ground data since September 2000.
