Full description

This repository contains the following data and code for analyzing seagrass carbon stocks in Fiji:
1)\tData from 135 soil cores collected from 47 sites across Vanua Levu, the Lau Group, and the Moala subgroup.
2)\tGeomorphic variables for each site derived from open-source geospatial datasets
3)\tSeagrass probability map for Fiji generated using Sentinel-2 multispectral satellite imagery (10m resolution) from 2022-2024
4)\tR scripts and associated data subsets used to examine spatial and environmental drivers of organic carbon storage in Fijian seagrass meadows

Lineage: Seagrass soil carbon data are derived from a subset of data collected in Fiji as part of the Pacific Blue Carbon Program. This broader Fijian dataset is available in the collection in Related Links below. Methods for generation of map-derived geomorphic variables, seagrass probability map and analysis code are described in the manuscript associated with this collection.
