Jefferson County Texas SLAMM Analysis

Dataset Identification:

Resource Abstract:
<p>The image shows the initial condition SLAMM landcover map for southern Jefferson County, Texas which was derived from 2004 National Wetland Inventory (NWI) data and was used for the Sea Level Rise Affecting Marsh Model (SLAMM) version 6. The SLAMM version 6 technical document can be accessed at <a href="http://warrenpinacle.com/prof/SLAMM">http://warrenpinacle.com/prof/SLAMM</a>.</p> <p><br /></p> <p>The image shows the SLAMM landcover cateogories for southern Jefferson County, Texas in 2025, 2050, 2075, and 2100 derived from the Sea Level Rise Affecting Marsh Model (SLAMM) version 6. The model used the 1 meter of sea-level rise by 2100 scenario and was produced by Warren Pinnacle Consulting, Inc. for the Nature Conservancy. The purpose of this map was to show how marshes are predicted to migrate inland due to increases in sea level by 2100. The SLAMM model produced landcover maps for 5 points in time for this specific sea level rise scenario, which included the starting point in 2004 and predicted landcover maps for 2025, 2050, 2075 and 2100. The SLAMM version 6 technical document can be accessed at http://warrenpinacle.com/prof/SLAMM.</p> <p><br /></p> <p>To read more about the development and application of this dataset, see:&Acirc;&nbsp;</p> <p>http://databasin.org/articles/511bb1a6a2d84d0f933dd1087fa08a40.<br /></p>
