Abstract

This resource consists of the spatial dataset: UCF_shorelinemodel_IRL_LWL.shp, created with support from the Indian River Lagoon National Estuaries Program and Florida Sea Grant. These projects cumulatively led to creation of a living shoreline restoration prioritization model and hydrodynamic habitat suitability models for 1,550 km (963 miles) of estuarine shorelines in Indian River Lagoon (IRL) and Lake Worth Lagoon (LWL), Florida. The dataset includes:
1. shoreline attribute data (>15,000 transects) collected in the field
2. shoreline wave climate data created through hydrodynamic modeling and frequency analysis of historic data
3. categorization of potential risk for boat wake impact to shoreline
4. persistence of seagrass within 210 m of the shoreline
5. model outputs of shorelines prioritized for stabilization/restoration based on field data
6. model outputs of shoreline hydrodynamic habitat suitability for mangroves and seagrass, created by combining hydrodynamic modelling outputs and field survey data.
