This dataset represents salt marsh communities in the Northeast Atlantic coast. The classification was produced using a combination of Digital Elevation Model (DEM) and National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP) multispectral imagery. This dataset combined with "Tidal Marsh Vegetation Classification, no DEM, 3m, Northeast U.S." provides a contiguous classification of tidal marsh cover types from coastal Maine to Virginia. The eight distinct cover/community types identified are: High marsh: Area flooded during spring tides related to the lunar cycle and dominated by Spartina patens, Distichlis spicata, Juncus gerardii, and short form Spartina alterniflora. Other species include Juncus roemerianus, Scirpus pungens,...

This dataset represents a combined file indicating where a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) was and was not used in the tidal marsh classifications "Tidal Marsh Vegetation Classification, DEM, 3m, Northeast U.S." and "Tidal Marsh Vegetation Classification, no DEM, 3m, Northeast U.S.". For more information about the development of the data please contact Mo Correll at Maureen.correll@maine.edu. "Tidal Marsh Vegetation Classification, DEM, 3m, Northeast U.S.", "Tidal Marsh Vegetation Classification, no DEM, 3m, Northeast U.S.", and "DEM Difference in Tidal Marsh Vegetation Classification, 3m, Northeast U.S." are products of the Saltmarsh Habitat and Avian Research Program (www.tidalmarshbirds.org).
