    • Rates of vertical accretion of backbarrier marshes along the Georgia Bight as measured from sediment cores collected during December 2017 (NCEI Accession 0286629)

    Metadata Updated: January 1, 2026

    This dataset includes measured sediment characteristics and vertical accretion rates of backbarrier marshes along the Georgia Bight. Data include bulk density (g/cm^3), water content (%), organic content (%), Pb-210 (Bq/kg), Cs-137 (Bq/kg), and calculated rates of vertical accretion (mm/yr) as measured from sediment cores collected during December 2017. Data are provided as CSV files.
