Description
This Web Map is included in the Mitigating Marshes Against Sea Level Rise: Thin Layer Placement Experiment application.
The National Estuarine Research Reserve (NERR) System Science Collaborative funded a two-year experiment at 8 different NERR sites to provide broad geographic scale, including Chesapeake Bay NERR in Virginia. The three core research questions they aim to answer include: “Is sediment addition an effective adaptation strategy for marshes in the face of sea level rise? How does marsh resilience respond to different levels of sediment addition? How do low versus high marsh habitats differ in their response to this restoration strategy?”.
This Story Map is a tool for 6th-12th grade teachers to help teach students about marshes and thin layer placement restoration techniques by exploring maps, videos, and images. Students will analyze how vegetation has changed in the Chesapeake Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve in Virginia (CBNERR-VA) marsh experiment plots in the first year of monitoring. They will evaluate images and graphs different treatments and determine which could be used as a possible restoration technique to combat sea level rise in marshes. |
