These data include all data which were collected as part of this study on impacts of increasing inundation duration driven by sea-level rise (SLR) on salt marsh ecosystem services. Here, we focussed on carbon storage and coastal defence. This includes data pertaining to site characteristics, sediment properties, carbon decomposition (teabag index), sediment stability and biomechanical traits of Spartina anglica saltmarsh vegetation. Our results point to trade-offs in ecosystem services emerging under sea-level rise conditions and highlight the importance of taking a multi-service approach to studying ecosystem service provision.
