Abstract
• A total wetland extent of 2950 km 2 was mapped during a period of peak biomass in September 2017 for the coastal wetlands of southern Louisiana • The mapped extent demonstrated considerable differences (793.7 km 2 ) from currently available estimates of wetland area. • Total herbaceous biomass at the study site was estimated at 1,396,969.2 Mg during a period of peak biomass and total woody vegetation biomass was estimated at 27,667,232.1 Mg. • Herbaceous biomass increased by 108.9% between a period of low to high biomass, underlining the dynamic nature of the wetlands and the influence of seasonality on wetland function.
