TY - DATA T1 - Data associated with the article "A spatiotemporal framework to assess the bio-geomorphic interplay of saltmarsh vegetation and tidal emergence (Western Scheldt estuary)" PY - 2024/12/23 AU - Jing Feng AU - Tim Grandjean AU - Johan van de Koppel AU - Daphne van der Wal UR - DO - 10.4121/fe23a0c6-b13a-49c5-accf-a09dc211983d.v1 KW - relative sea level change KW - morphodynamics KW - Western Scheldt estuary KW - saltmarsh vegetation KW - emersion duration KW - plant diversity N2 -

In the publication associated with this dataset we study the links between changed emergence and plant diversity/cover by using emersion duration maps and vegetation maps of the Dutch Western Scheldt estuary over a period of decades (1993-2016). Using open-source maps of emersion duration, elevation, vegetation, and ecotopes from Rijkswaterstaat, we preprocessed the data in Google Earth Engine (GEE) and ArcGIS. The pixel-based or formatted data tables were then exported after integrating all data for further analysis and visualization in R. This dataset contains the processed data and R code used for generating all figures in the article. We also list original data sources in the descriptive files.
