Marsh Organ Simulating Sea-Level Rise in the Delaware River Estuary

A marsh ‘organ’ modified from Jim Morris’ design to test the impacts of flooding and salt-water intrusion on marshes along the salinity gradient in the Delaware River. This is the organ at the mesohaline Stow site – notice the Spartina alterniflora mesocosms from this site alternating with the Nuphar lutea mesocosms from the tidal freshwater Rancocas site.
