abstract: "<p>This data set
contains the survival of <i>Spartina anglica</i>
seedlings (with different ages), the survival, shoot numbers, plant height and
biomass of <i>S. anglica</i> tussocks of a
field mega-marsh organ marsh experiment that been carried out in Perkpolder,
the Netherlands in 2016 and 2018. This study investigated the impact of surface drainage and elevation relative to mean
sea-level on <i>i)</i> the survival of <i>S. anglica</i> seedlings from three different age classes: 1-year, 3-month and 1-week; and <i>ii)</i> the growth performance
of mature <i>S. anglica</i> marsh tussocks.</p>"
