Observed tree mortality rates at study sites in the Maurepas swamp are very high (up to 100% tree mortality in 11 years) and basal area decreased with average salinities of <1 ppt. Habitat classification, vegetation productivity and mortality, and surface elevation changes show a clear trajectory from stagnant, nearly permanently flooded forests with broken canopy to degraded forests with sparse baldcypress and dominated by herbaceous species and open water to open water habitat for most of the Maurepas swamp without introduction of fresh water to combat saltwater intrusion and stimulate productivity and accretion.

The Tangipahoa River traverses 61 miles in Louisiana and has a watershed measuring 521 mi2. Its watershed covers much of Tangipahoa Parish. Directly west of the Tangipahoa Watershed is the Tickfaw Watershed, covering western Tangipahoa Parish and eastern Livingston and St. Helena Parishes. The Tickfaw River runs 69 miles in Louisiana with a 671 mi2 watershed. Tangipahoa Parish’s largest municipality, the City of Hammond, lies within the Ponchatoula Creek and Yellow Water River, sub-watersheds in the Tickfaw (Figure 1.1). Historically rural in character, the northern portions of the parishes still boast a robust dairy and crop industry. However, Tangipahoa and Livingston Parishes have also been subjected to rapid conversion of agricultural land to sprawling urban development in recent decades, and particularly since the 2005 hurricane season. Tangipahoa Parish’s population increased from 100,602 in 2000 to an estimated 125,412 in 2013 (U.S. Census Bureau, http://quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/states/22/22105.html). The southern portion of Tangipahoa Parish, and particularly land around the cities of Hammond and Ponchatoula, has seen the majority of this growth. In addition, as family dairies and small farms decline, the properties are being developed into subdivisions and small communities. The still largely agricultural parishes do not have the infrastructure to accommodate this development.
