This polygon dataset facilitates quantifying the changes in salinity exposure of vegetation in the EBFNWR salt marsh complex by summarizing the results over the previously determined conceptual salt marsh unit polygons (Defne and Ganju, 2016b). Analysis of episodic change in salinity exposure is part of a comprehensive assessment to identify the factors and their weights in determining the vulnerability and resiliency of salt marshes. Salinity exposure was defined as the depth-averaged salinity times the duration of exposure. Change in salinity exposure has been estimated based on the hydrodynamic modeling of Barnegat Bay - Little Egg Harbor (BBLEH) estuary during Hurricane Sandy period from 10/27/2012 to 11/04/2012 (Defne and Ganju, 2016a).
