title: Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune - Forest Burn Data

description: Critical military training and testing on lands along the nation’s coastal and estuarine shorelines are increasingly placed at risk because of encroachment pressures in surrounding areas, impairments due to other anthropogenic disturbances, and changes in climate and sea level. The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) intends to enhance and sustain its training and testing assets and also optimize its stewardship of natural resources through the development and application of an ecosystem-based management approach on DoD installations. To accomplish this goal, particularly for installations in estuarine/coastal environments, the Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program (SERDP) launched the Defense Coastal/Estuarine Research Program (DCERP) as a 10-year effort at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune (MCBCL) in North Carolina. The results of the second 5 years of the program (DCERP2) are presented in the DCERP2 Final Report.There were four overarching objectives of DCERP2. The first objective was to understand the effects of climate change impacts, including warming temperatures, variability in the hydrological cycle, storm events, and sea level rise on the coastal ecosystems at MCBCL from observations and measurements made over the 10-year program. The second objective was to understand the carbon cycle of the coastal and terrestrial ecosystems at MCBCL through a highly integrated sampling program. The third objective was to develop models, tools, and indicators to evaluate current and projected future ecosystem state changes and translate scientific findings into actionable information for installation managers. The last objective was to recommend adaptive management strategies to sustain ecosystem natural resources within the context of an active military installation.This data package contains burn and wildfire history and time enabled service data.

Travel time of particles and solutes is fundamental for estimating their exposure to reaction sites where biogeochemical processes occur. Travel time provides the time scale for all subsequent calculations of biogeochemical process rates that alter constituent loads through this reach. This metric provides a convenient control volume across which to extrapolate process rates of denitrification and photomineralization of DOC. Analysis of this dataset is provided in Appendix D of Chapter 4 (AEM-4) in the DCERP2 Final Monitoring Report.

Millions of x, y, and z points from Onslow Beach were processed using the Terrasolid software package to define a bare-earth model. The beach was broken into a series of zones, each zone was processed separately, and this grid covers all of the zones. Data were collected during the same week and around the low tide (two hours before and after low tide).

PB experiments were conducted in five different test plots (RB, HA, MF, IEn, IEs), spanning the moisture gradient from semi-mesic loblolly pine forest to wet-mesic loblolly-longleaf pine forest to pond pine pocosin. Each plot contained mechanically treated, hydro-axed fuel in a 100 x 100 m (1 ha) area, whose emissions were compared to those from the surrounding untreated control fuel. The majority of these data were added to MARDIS, but the entire file is provided here for ease of use.

Data was collected by ground truth methods and included boat operations. The shoreline of the ICW was characterized by boat in April and June 2010 using Global Positioning Systems (GPS) equipment and ArcGIS software. The previously digitized 2009 shoreline was edited within ArcGIS, using GPS equipment to obtain the position of the boat relative to the shoreline. Four fields were created for the shoreline shapefile, including: shoreline type, vegetation/species, modification type and relief. A unique identifying code was created by concatenating the field values of the four fields. in January 2013 the field Veg_2 was created for the output of SLtype and Vegtype codeing.

Results are based on the difference in the Tassle Cap greenness band recorded in 1984 to the greenness recorded in 1998. This Intensity of green gain was then developed into a four category green gain classification using the mean and standard deviation of the green gain difference data set standardized to the 1984-2007 change period: 0. No green gain, green loss, or background 1. No significant change; values &gt; 0 to =&lt; 0.02147 (mean) 2. Moderate green gain, thicker veg, etc; values &gt; 0.02147 to =&lt; 0.0525 (mean + SD) 3. Large green gain; values &gt; 0.0525 to max Classes 2 and 3 are retained as significant green gain locations. Polygon patches are labeled with the intensity value in the attribute 'GRIDCODE'. Greenness gain in MCBCL is largely timber harvest areas that have regrown.

The imagery was obtained from the Installation Geospatial Information & Services Office, ITSD, BLSD, MCB Camp Lejeune, NC. These shorelines were digitized to be used to calculate shoreline-change rates within the New River Estuary as part of the Defense Coastal/Estuarine Research Program. Each shoreline was digitized separately and then merged to create one shapefile containing the shorelines of all three years.
