Plot level plant data and ancillary parameters in Terrebonne Bay and LUMCON area salt marshes, 2015

Live and dead above-ground biomass, stem density, median stem height, and litter biomass as well as below-ground biomass of Spartina alterniflora were determined from 1-3 plots at seven Louisiana salt marshes in 2015. All three Louisiana Universities Marine Consortium (LUMCON) sites were sampled monthly whereas the four Terrebonne Bay marshes were sampled less frequently. Additional ancillary data on soil and water parameters are included when available. This dataset is a continuation of dataset R1.x139.143:0054 that covered 2013-2014. This dataset is used in the publication: ​Hill TD, Roberts BJ. 2017. Effects of seasonality and environmental gradients on Spartina alterniflora allometry and primary production. Ecology and Evolution. DOI:10.1002/ece3.3494.
