This data release includes water quality and habitat data collected at Bayou Sauvage National Wildlife Refuge (BSNWR). Monitoring water quality, water-level changes, and bird-use relationships in BSNWR is important to the long-term sustainability of these aquatic resources for use by visitors and aquatic life in these habitats. This data release includes datasets of continuous and discrete water quality, water level, and habitat data at 14 sites from October 2019 - December 2021.

Wetland elevation and soil characteristics across Bayou Sauvage National Wildlife Refuge (2020-2021)
The recent completion of the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Hurricane and Storm Damage Risk Reduction System (HSDRRS) for New Orleans has effectively blocked surface water exchange between Bayou Sauvage National Wildlife Refuge (BSNWR) and the surrounding Lake(s) Pontchartrain and Borgne and the Gulf of Mexico to which it was once connected. Monitoring changes in hydrology, water quality, bird habitat variability, and resident waterbird and nekton communities within BSNWR is important to the long-term sustainability of these aquatic resources for use by visitors and aquatic life in these habitats. In particular, landscape and hydrologic modifications from management and restoration projects in southeastern Louisiana...

There is a growing movement within natural resource management to view wildlife health as a cumulative outcome of many different factors, rather than simply the absence of disease. This inclusive understanding of health opens the door to management options that are more creative than traditional techniques to prevent or mitigate pathogens. The public health field uses a determinants of health framework to understand the physical, social, and cultural systems that impact health at the individual and community levels (National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine 2016). Applying a similar framework to wildlife can help managers focus on tangible actions to positively impact wildlife health in the absence...
