Abstract
Eleven soil cores (~2 m deep) were collected, one meter inland from the marsh edge, from four sites within Barataria Basin, LA, USA in Sept. 2018 and Aug. 2019. In addition, three soil cores (0.5 m deep) taken from the estuarine bottom 25 m offshore from the edge of a marsh site. During sampling, the depth of the estuary was 1 m relative to the marsh surface. The cores were sectioned into 10 cm intervals and analyzed for soil biogeochemical properties with depth. For a complete list of measurements, refer to the full dataset description in the supplemental file 'Dataset_description.pdf'. The most current version of this dataset is available at: https://www.bco-dmo.org/dataset/833824
