Developing Seagrass Models Using Estuary Data Mapper (EDM)
The following videos assume you are familiar with EDM basics.
- Seagrass Introduction
- Seagrass Modeling Data Scenarios
- Seagrass Composite Coverage (State/National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration)
Seagrass Introduction
The following video describes the importance of seagrass to estuary environments and how EDM can identify areas for seagrass growth or restoration.
Seagrass Modeling Data Scenarios
The following video describes EDM's pre-set seagrass scenarios for several different classes of estuaries. The video describes the sequence of steps needed to download this data.
Seagrass Composite Coverage (State/National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration)
The following video describes EDM's composite coverage (seagrass data combined from multiple sources), with an example of retrieving data for the Long Island Sound estuary.
