Our Purpose
The primary purpose of this project is to develop an inventory of existing Surface Elevation Tables (SETs). SETs play a crucial role in measuring changes in wetland elevation, aiding in assessing a marsh’s resilience to sea level rise. Additionally, our Community of Practice aims to foster community engagement among stakeholders, practitioners, and local communities.
