This dataset contains non-destructive measurements of key features of Typha angustifolia samples. These samples were measured during the growing season in 2022, 2023, and 2024 in an upland brackish tidal wetland along the Parker River, Byfield, Massachusetts (MA), which is within the Plum Island Ecosystems Long Term Ecological Research Station (PIE LTER). Measurements were taken to investigate the difference in above ground biomass between two locations, the marsh interior (MI) and the creek bank (CB) and to support an allometric equation used to predict aboveground Typha angustifolia biomass per square meter. No QA/QC procedures were applied to the data. Metadata files Typha_biomass_observations_dd.csv and Typha_biomass_observations_flmd.csv contain detailed information on variable definitions, sampling methods, and the location of the site.
