Marsh vegetation burial experiment biomass data, August 2014

End of year biomass harvested from marsh vegetation burial experiment on Hog Island. Experiment was set up at two sites - one in the high marsh and one in the low marsh. Within each site, a 6x6 array of mesocosms was established with 6 replicates of 6 different burial treatments (0, 5, 10, 15, 30, and 60 centimeters). After one growing season, the biomass was clipped from the top of each mesocosm, the mesocosm and sand layer was removed, and the vegetation within the sand layer was clipped at the marsh surface. This biomass was then returned to the lab, washed, dried to a constant weight, and weighed.本数据集源自霍格岛（Hog Island）沼泽植被埋藏实验的年末收获生物量。该实验设置两处样地，分别位于高潮沼泽与低潮沼泽。每处样地内均布设6×6规格的中型生态箱（mesocosms）阵列，包含6种埋藏处理梯度（0、5、10、15、30与60厘米），每种处理设置6个重复样本。经过一个完整生长季后，研究人员从每个中型生态箱顶部收割植被生物量；随后移除中型生态箱与砂层，并在沼泽地表处收割砂层内的植被生物量。将收集得到的全部生物量带回实验室，经清洗、烘干至恒重后进行称重。
