Percent Cover was taken for a variety of species for 1m2 quadrats along a ~50 meter transect. 1m2 quadrats were placed at every single meter mark and percent cover was determined by several individuals of all species present. If < 1 % then species was said to be "present", during the entering of data present species were give a 0.01 % value except for TSA which was give 0.1%. These transects were sampled every year between 2003-2009 and in 2011. Mean values per quadrat were derieved for average transect % cover. Abbreviations: TSA- Spartina alterniflora (tall form) SSA- Spartina alterniflora (short form) DS- Distichlis spicata SP- Spartina patens JG- Juncus gerardii TM- Triglochin maritima AP- Atroplex patula SD- Salicornia depressa LC- Limonium carolinianum IF- Iva frutescens Water- Water in quadrat Mud- Mud in quadrat Dead- Dead in quadrat Creeks- Reference creeks are West (WE) and Nelson(NE) Nutrient Enriched creeks are Sweeney (SW) and Clubhead(CL). Sweeney has been fertilized every summer from 2004-2011. Clubhead had been fertilized in 2005 and then from 2009-2011. All creeks have two branches determined by direction at confluence while facing upstream (Left or Right). Plant transects run perpendicular to creeks at various points with a front pole at the creek bank and a back pole an the high marsh. Transects are in the order of 1, 2, 4, 3 or blue, green, red, yellow from confluence of branch.
