20 Questions Are the marshes in Elkhorn Slough drowning? What are the tools used to observe a drowning marsh? What does the data show?
21 Data Results Remote sensing: Marsh Classification High loss Moderate loss No change Moderate recovery High recovery Very high recovery
22 Data Results Remote sensing: Marsh Classification High loss Moderate loss No change Moderate recovery High recovery Very high recovery
23 Data Results TLS and remote sensing: NDVI (normalized difference vegetation index) NDVI 2009 Marsh Transect Legend NDVI_ES_NAIP2009.tif Value High : 0.5 Low : -0.75
24 Data Results TLS and remote sensing: NDVI (normalized difference vegetation index) NDVI 2014 Marsh Transect Legend ES_NAIP2014_NDVI.tif Value High : 0.5 Low : -0.75
25 Data Results TLS and remote sensing: Elevation correlates with NDVI Elevation vs NDVI R² = NDVI Elevation
26 Data Results TLS and marsh transect data: marshes are low in the tidal frame Frequency distribution of salt marsh elevations MHW MHHW Frequency Elevation (m NAVD88)
27 Data Results Benchmark Surveys: Subsidence = 2.75 mm/yr mm Elevation Change at Benchmarks (2008 to 2016) Laser Leveling
28 Data Results SET data: Accretion outpacing elevation; Subsidence = 2.6 mm/yr
29 Data Results CORS (P210) data: Vertical plate motion P210 CORS Station Vertical Motion: Elkhorn Slough Elevation change (mm) Vertical (mm) / Present mm/yr 60 per. Mov. Avg.

33 Data Results Water Level data: Monterey Tide Station Source: tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/
34 Summary Historical and recent data suggests Elkhorn Slough s marshes are drowning Rate of local subsidence of 3 mm/yr has been fairly consistent Rate of sea level rise has dramatically increased since 2014 With sustained high water levels, significant die-off of pickleweed in Elkhorn Slough is likely Marsh restoration efforts are imperative
