This datalayer is part of a group of layers used for research in the Ipswich River Watershed. This layer was created in July 2006 for Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) in Woods Hole, MA. This layer shows the land use, 37 categories, for the towns in the Ipswich River Watershed and the Parker River Watershed for 1999. This datalayer has complete information. Provide land use information for general mapping and display, and landuse change analysis.

In ArcMap, towns within our study area were selected from LANDUSE and a new layer was created from this selection. Towns were selected by attribute, based on their Town_ID code. The following Town_IDs were selected: 9, 30, 31, 38, 48, 71, 92, 105, 116, 119, 144, 164, 184, 205, 206, 210, 213, 229, 246, 254, 295, 320, 298, 324, 342, and 347. The selected features were then exported as a new layer, TOWNSFROMLU.
The land use map of the study area was imported into Idrisi Kiliminjaro and converted to a raster file. After importing TOWNSFROMLU, the data base file was opened and the field LU37_1999 was exported to a raster image.
The map was updated to give a value of 3 to pixels in the following positions: (r: 344. c: 1017) and (r: 769, c: 1179). This value was assigned because these pixels were not classified in the conversion from vector to raster. They were assigned membership to the foreset class based on visual analysis of the original vector data.

The Plum Island Ecosystems (PIE) LTER is an integrated research, education and outreach program whose goal is to develop a predictive understanding of the long-term response of watershed and estuarine ecosystems at the land-sea interface to changes in climate, land use and sea level. The principal study site is the Plum Island Sound estuary, its coupled Parker, Rowley and Ipswich River watersheds and the adjacent coastal ocean, the Gulf of Maine. Humans are altering the ecosystems of the world at rates not previously experienced. Understanding and predicting how multiple stresses affect the sustainability of ecosystems is one of the most crucial challenges in environmental biology. The PIE LTER focuses on how several aspects of global change influence organic matter and inorganic nutrient biogeochemistry and estuarine foodwebs. The inputs of organic matter and nutrients from land, ocean and marshes interact with the external drivers (climate, land use, river discharge, sea level) to dictate the extent and degree of nutrient and organic matter processing and determine the spatial patterns of estuarine productivity and trophic structure. The overarching question is: How will trophic structure and primary and secondary productivity in estuaries be affected by changes in organic matter and nutrient loading and hydrodynamics caused by changing land use, climate and sea level?
