Nutrient data from the Peat Collapse-Saltwater Intrusion Field Experiment from a brackish water site within Everglades National Park, collected from October 2014 to September 2016

With sea level rise increasing, saltwater intrusion into low-lying coastal wetlands is likely to occur.  We simulated saltwater intrusion into an Everglades marsh through monthly additions of elevated salinity water. Monthly porewater nutrients were taken at 15 cm depth from a brackish water marsh. Porewater physicochemistry was measured 24 hours after dosing. Collection occurred from Oct 2014 - Sep 2016. The collected water was then analyzed for temperature, conductivity, salinity, pH, alkalinity, chloride, DOC, NH4, SO4, TDN, SRP, TDP, and sulfide. These data are published in Wilson, B.J., Servais, S., Mazzei, V., Davis, S.E., Kelly, S., Gaiser, E., Kominoski, J.S., Richards, J., Rudnick, D., Sklar, F., Stachelek, J., and Troxler, T.G. Salinity pulses interact with seasonal dry-down to increase ecosystem carbon loss in marshes of the Florida Everglades. Ecological Applications. Accepted.
