This dataset contains the data obtained and utilized for the manuscript: Using salt marshes for coastal protection: effective but hard to get where needed most.

This study analyzed 20 years of vegetation and bathymetry maps along the Dutch Wadden Sea coast in combination with detailed process-based measurements at 5 locations during three years in order to understand where salt marshes form and what features determine their contribution to coastal protection value.

The field data includes wave data collected with OSSI wave loggers in marshes and mudflats fronting dikes, beach wrack elevation points on the dikes after storms, vegetation properties and marsh&mudflat soil elevation.
