Ancillary sedimentary data supporting marsh and subtidal benthic community, plant biomass, and marsh invertebrate distribution studies in paired oiled/unoiled sites in coastal Louisiana in Spring and Fall 2013

Samples for sediment grain size, TOC and water content were collected in Spring and Fall 2013 coincident with benthic infauna (UDI R1.x139.144:0020), plant biomass (UDI R1.x139.144:0023), and mussel and snail collections (UDI R1.x139.144:0021) to determine those factors most important in influencing...

Description
Summary:Samples for sediment grain size, TOC and water content were collected in Spring and Fall 2013 coincident with benthic infauna (UDI R1.x139.144:0020), plant biomass (UDI R1.x139.144:0023), and mussel and snail collections (UDI R1.x139.144:0021) to determine those factors most important in influencing the benthic communities and the intertidal marsh invertebrate distributions.
