Abstract
This dataset includes vegetative and flowering density of Zostera marina determined from from weekly-biweekly surveys in shallow and deep zones at two sites in Massachusetts, USA in 2019. Eleven surveys of two different eelgrass beds were conducted every 1-2 weeks starting June 4th and ending August 27th during the summer of 2019. The two sites were West Beach in Beverly (N 42.55921, W 70.80578) and Curlew Beach in Nahant (N 42.42009, W 70.91553). 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/847023
