Title
NE regional Highmarsh [U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service]
Description
This is an extract of the High marsh data from the Tidal Marsh Vegetation Classification, DEM, 3m, Northeast U.S.https://www.sciencebase.gov/catalog/item/5a4d4db3e4b0d05ee8c4d195This 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 bySpartina patens, Distichlis spicata, Juncus gerardii, and short formSpartina alterniflora. Other species includeJuncus roemerianus,Scirpus pungens, Scirpus robustus, Limonium nashii, Aster tenuifolius,andTriglochin maritima.
