Title: Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of the Duplin River and adjacent intertidal areas near Sapelo Island, Georgia
Abstract: Topographic and bathymetric data were collected for the Duplin River and adjacent intertidal areas near Sapelo Island, Georgia, using high-precision multibeam SONAR equipment. The bathymetric survey was performed from 09-Dec-2009 to 12-Dec-2009. This study was conducted to create a base map of bathymetry, morphology and physical habitat of the Duplin River, which is a primary study site of the Georgia Coastal Ecosystems Long Term Ecological Research (GCE-LTER) project.
