Note: The 2022 data release "Geospatial Characterization of Salt Marshes in Chesapeake Bay" incorporates the Blackwater region salt marsh dataset. (https://doi.org/10.5066/P997EJYB) This data release contains coastal wetland synthesis products for the geographic region of Blackwater salt marsh complex, Chesapeake Bay, Maryland. Metrics for resiliency, including unvegetated to vegetated ratio (UVVR), marsh elevation, and others, are calculated for smaller units delineated from a digital elevation model, providing the spatial variability of physical factors that influence wetland health. The U.S. Geological Survey has been expanding national assessment of coastal change hazards and forecast products to coastal wetlands...

Here we provide data used to report on changes in tidal marsh elevation at the Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge (NWR), located in Dorchester, Maryland, USA. This dataset includes Surface Elevation Table (SET) measurements taken from 40 SET platforms distributed across the refuge. At each platform location annual measurements of wetland surface elevation were made from 20010-2013.
