Note: This dataset has been revised and superseded by version 2.0, available here: https://doi.org/10.5066/P90PG34S. Remote sensing based maps of tidal marshes, both of their extents and carbon stocks, have the potential to play a key role in conducting greenhouse gas inventories and implementing climate mitigation policies. Our objective was to generate a single remote sensing model of tidal marsh aboveground biomass and carbon that represents nationally diverse tidal marshes within the conterminous United States (CONUS). To meet this objective we developed the first national-scale dataset of aboveground tidal marsh biomass, species composition, and aboveground plant carbon content (%C) from six CONUS regions:...

This USGS Data Release represents geospatial and tabular data for the Nisqually River Delta historical habitat mapping. The data release was produced in compliance with the new 'open data' requirements as a way to make the scientific products associated with USGS research efforts and publications available to the public. The dataset consists of 9 separate items: 1. Forest Change (raster dataset) 2. Forest Type Change (raster dataset) 3. Functional Pathway Change (raster dataset) 4. 1957 Habitat Map (raster dataset) 5. 1980 Habitat Map (raster dataset) 6. 2015 Habitat Map (raster dataset) 7. 1980 Species Map (raster dataset) 8. 2015 Species Map (raster dataset) 9. Wetland Change (raster dataset) These data support...
