This study investigates the effects of tidal elevations on habitat changes within Elkhorn Slough, focusing on the interaction between freshwater and saltwater environments. Utilizing bathymetric data and case observations from various marsh types, the research outlines how tidal dynamics influence marshland, upland regions, and creek channels. Key findings demonstrate the significance of tidal patterns in shaping habitat diversity and ecological health. This case is enriched by visual data provided by Tupper Ansel Blake and Paul Zeretsky, highlighting critical areas within the slough.
