Assessment of marsh/mangrove above and below ground productivity at Chandeleur Island, June and September 2015

Dataset extent

Abstract

Productivity of Spartina alterniflora and Avicennia germinans was assessed by measuring growth of shoots/leaves between sampling periods (approximately 3 months). Measured replicates where tagged during sampling in June 2015, and remeasured in September of 2015.

Purpose

In order to observe effects of oil contamination on biological processes, productivity of Avicennia germinans and Spartina alterniflora communities were assessed using measurements of above- and belowground growth for both species over time.
