Maryland Coastal Bays Sediment Mapping Project: Surficial Sediment
This data set contains location, textural, and chemical parameters for 988 surficial sediment samples collected in Maryland's Coastal Bays. The location parameters include UTM zone 18 North coordinates, as well as Maryland State Plane Grid (in meters), and latitude and longitude for sediment sample locations. Textural parameters include percent by weight of water, sand, silt, clay and gravel size components. Chemical parameters include total nitrogen, total carbon, organic carbon, reactive carbon, total phosphorus, and total sulfur contents and concentrations for nine metals: cadmium, chromium, copper, iron, lead, manganese, nickel, and zinc.
