Abstract

This dataset consists of drone-derived habitat data tables used to quantify fine-scale landscape metrics in an estuarine environment undergoing rapid climate-driven habitat change. The data were generated as part of a study evaluating the effects of mangrove encroachment and marsh loss on species-landscape relationships in coastal Louisiana. Habitat variables were derived for buffer zones ranging from 20 to 150 meters around 52 field sampling sites and edge zones 1, 3, and 5 meters from the w...
