soil salinity from 2015-12-01 to 2016-03-30 (NCEI Accession 0151634)

The project restored both structural and habitat functions of Grand Liard Bayou and flanking marshes. The project created and nourished marsh and restored a ridge on the east bank of Bayou Grand Liard. Approximately 50% of the created marsh will be planted with smooth cordgrass, and the entire ridge will be planted with appropriate woody vegetation. Soil samples to be taken every 6 months over a 2- to 3-year period due to concerns about high salinities of the ridge soils affecting survivability of the planted woody vegetation.本项目修复了大利亚德溪湾（Grand Liard Bayou）及其毗邻湿地的结构与栖息地功能。项目营建并养护了湿地，并对大利亚德溪湾东岸的堤脊实施了修复工程。约50%的新建湿地将栽植互花米草（smooth cordgrass），整座堤脊则将种植适配的木本植被。鉴于堤脊土壤盐度过高可能影响栽植木本植被的存活率，项目将在2至3年的周期内每6个月采集一次土壤样本。
