Data of eelgrass (Zostera marina) and other seagrasses density, physical characteristics, cover, and biomass from Kouchibouguac National Park

Description

The Common Eelgrass (Zostera marina) monitoring program started in 2024 and follows a modified protocol based on the SeagrassNet protocol (https://www.scribd.com/document/39219811/Sea-Grass-Net-Manual-2006-Worldwide). It intends to track changes at 4 permanent sites composed of 3 transects/site and 12 quadrats/transect. The parameters recorded include percentage cover in a 50 X 50 cm quadrat, density (number of shoots) in a 25 X 25 cm quadrat and above + below ground biomass collected with a core sampler with a diameter of 7 cm.
