OzSET (Australian Surface Elevation Table) data (NESP MaC 1.11)

Tidal wetlands are vulnerable to accelerated rates of sea-level rise projected by climate models. The Surface Elevation Table (SET) is a technique applied globally to assess the extent of vertical adjustment of tidal wetlands to sea-level rise over decadal timescales. This record describes the SET data from the Australian network (OzSET). This data can be used for analyzing wetlands elevation change at the study sites

Statement
Surface Elevation Table (SET) was used to collect the data. The SET device consists of a vertical benchmark rod that is driven into soil profile (typically 8-25m depth) to support the portable SET device. A portable horizontal arm that is attached to a fixed point at the rod, extending across the marsh surface; at the end of the horizontal arm, vertical pins are lowered into marsh surface at each fixed position, and the height above the horizontal arm is recorded.
