Wang, H., Snedden, G.A., Hartig, E.K., and Chen, Q., 2023, Spatial Variability in Vertical Accretion and Carbon Sequestration in Salt Marsh Soils of an Urban Estuary: Wetlands, v. 43, no. 5, https://doi.org/10.1007/s13157-023-01699-y.
The soil property (bulk density, organic matter content, total organic carbon, total nitrogen) and Cesium-137 and Lead-210 dating data were used to determine the spatial variability in marsh vertical accretion rate and soil organic carbon sequestration rates in salt marshes across Jamaica Bay Estuary. The results can be used for evaluation of salt marsh resilience and carbon budget under future climate change and sea level rise.
