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.

Who would have thought 2020 would be so eventful. When it came time to change our clocks to go off Daylight Savings Time, I did not want to do it. I wanted to wait until 2 AM on New Years Day.

While it may end up with a death toll lower than a Flu epidemic, losing anyone to a disease is not good.
