E.G. Simmons | A data point from a sediment core collected within a wetland at E.G. Simmons Park (Ruskin, Florida). |
Fort de Soto | A data point from a sediment core collected within a wetland at Fort de Soto Park, (St. Petersburg, Florida). |
Holly House | A data point from a sediment core collected within a wetland at Terra Ceia Preserve State Park, (Palmetto, Florida). Note that a nearby landmark is named Haley House, however, our field notes refer to the location as Holly House. |

Field work was supported by Dr. Ryan Moyer’s team at the Florida Fish and Wildlife Institute, St. Petersburg, FL. Dr. Nicole Khan provided laboratory and field assistance.
Sediment cores were collected, age-dated, and their carbon content was measured to calculate vertical accretion and carbon burial rates. Data were collected to determine 1) carbon burial rates in typical Tampa Bay ecosystems and 2) the ecosystem resilience to sea-level rise.
