Parker River Plum Island Sound Estuarine Surface Area and Volume Data

Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR

The Plum Island Ecosystem was originally called The Plum Island Sound Comparative Ecosystems Research Program and was part of the The Land Margin Ecosystems Research Program developed by the National Science Foundation (NSF).

Description

LMER was started to help answer pressing scientific and societal questions about the present functions and future changes of coastal environments. The goals of LMER are to increase the understanding of the organization and function of land-margin ecosystems, the linkages between these systems and adjacent terrestrial and marine ecosystems, and the impacts of major natural environmental perturbations in these regions.

This data set contains width, depth, distance (from the Parker River Dam), volume, and surface area data. Part of Long-Term Ecological Research site (PIE). Began as a LMER Plum Island Sound Comparative Ecosystems Study (PISCES).
