Wetland biomass responses to experimental flooding and warming, Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta (Western Alaska, USA), 2022-2023 ...
This dataset was used to answer the question: to what extent do flooding and warming alter plant-community structure in the high-latitude coastal wetlands of the Yukon-Kuskokwim (Y-K) Delta (Western Alaska, USA)? Over two years, we simulated periodic summer tidal flood events at two severity levels...
