Principal Investigator(s): Meagan Eagle
Affiliate Investigator(s): Amanda Spivak, Shannon Valley
Information Specialist(s): Meagan Eagle
Data Type(s): Sampling: Geology
Scientific Purpose/Goals: We are studying carbon cycling and sediment accretion dynamics at two marshes in Gulf Shores, AL. One has a tidal restriction that has resulted in a freshened, flooded wetland and the other has natural hydrology. USGS is leading the soil coring and analyses.
