Dataset of results from numerical simulations of increased storm intensity in an estuarine salt marsh system

This article contains data outlining the effects of increased storm intensity on estuarine salt marshes, previously evaluated in Pannozzo et al. (2021), using Ribble Estuary, North West England, as a case study. The hydrodynamic model Delft3D was used to simulate various surge height scenarios and evaluate increasing sediment budget system. shows that an increase (i.e. height) promotes flood dominance triggers net import sediment, positively contributing marsh platform timing relative high or low tide, duration presence vegetation do not cause major changes budget. dataset could be how might influence estuaries comparison other types coastal systems (e.g., bays) illustrate response marshes varies with change hydrodynamics delivery dynamics
