Bottom sediment, chlorophyll and pheophytin survey Plum Island Sound, Massachusetts, September 10 - 15, 2010
Tidal bars and tidal flats in shallow, mesotidal estuaries are subject to the action of tidal currents and waves. This complex forcing gives rise to large variations in bottom sediments and related benthic ecosystems. In this research we study the spatial relationships among tidal currents, waves, sediment characteristics, chlorophyll a, and pheophytin in the shallow bars and flats of Plum Island Sound, Massachusetts, USA. Waves and tides have a mild effect on the sand grain size and percent of silt and mud of these shallow deposits. Average wave conditions are more important than extreme events, like Nor’easters, in sediment sorting. The spatial distribution of pheophytin, an indicator of dead microphytobenthos, mimics that of silt and mud whereas chlorophyll a, a proxy for the live microphytobenthos stock, is greatest in sandy areas characterized by intermediate values of tidal velocity.Tidal currents and waves were computed using the numerical model Delf3D.-SWAN.

Marsh boundary of marsh bordering Plum Island Sound at the end of Stackyard Road, Rowley, MA.
We present high-resolution field measurements of five sites along the United States Atlantic Coast, and cellular automata simulations, to investigate the erosion of marsh boundaries by wave action. According to our analysis, when salt marshes are exposed to high wave energy conditions their boundaries erode uniformly. The resulting erosion events follow a Gaussian distribution, yielding a relatively smooth shoreline. On the contrary, when wind waves are weak and the local marsh resistance is strong, jagged marsh boundaries form. In this case, erosion episodes have a long-tailed frequency magnitude distribution with numerous low-magnitude events, but also high-magnitude episodes. The logarithmic frequency magnitude distribution suggests the emergence of a critical state for marsh boundaries, which would make the prediction of failure events impossible. Internal physical processes allowing salt marshes to reach this critical state are geotechnical and biological, and related to the nonhomogeneity of salt marshes whose material discontinuities act as stress raisers.

PIE LTER Land Cover (2005), Plum Island Sound estuary, Massachusetts - Raster
This is a seven-category land-cover map of the Plum Island Sound estuary, Massachusetts. The seven categories are: water, tidal flats and soils, Spartina alterniflora, Spartina patens, trees, grass, impervious surface. These medium resolution true color images are considered the new "basemap" for the Commonwealth by MassGIS. The photography for the entire commonwealth was captured in April 2005 when deciduous trees were mostly bare and the ground was generally free of snow. Image type is 4-band (RGBN) natural color (Red, Green, Blue) and Near infrared in 8 bits (values ranging 0-255) per band format.

PIE LTER Water Network (2005), Plum Island Sound estuary, Massachusetts - Vector
Fine scale DEM was generated by using Terrasolid’s TerraScan Lidar processing software, based on airborne LiDAR data collected on April 19th to 25th, 2005; then a toolbox ArcHydro in the software ArcGIS is used to extract stream network from the DEM data.
PIE LTER 2005 Digital elevation model for the Plum Island Sound estuary, Massachusetts, filtered_grd, last filtered grid - Raster
On April 18 and 19, 2005 LIDAR (Light Detection and Radar) flights occured in the lower portion of the Plum Island Sound, Massachusetts estuary and were timed to correspond to low tides to minimize higher tide influences on pulsed returns. The LIDAR survey was conducted by the National Center for Airborne Laser Mapping (NCALM). This data set consists of a one meter Digital Elevation Model (DEM) in ESRI GRID file format based upon last filtered grid (bare-earth) data from the LIDAR flights.
