Summary

It contains supporting data from the wetland morphology modeling to support the analysis on the landscape effects of Mississippi River diversions in the context of sea-level rise on soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration along coastal Louisiana wetlands.

Purpose

Data were obtained from the model simulations of various scenarios of Misissippi River (MR) diversions, sea-level rise and their combinations in order to support the assessment of the landscape effects of Mississippi River diversions in the context of sea-level rise on soil organic carbon sequestration along coastal Louisiana wetlands.
