This dataset contains sediment samples analyzed for percentages of total organic carbon (TOC), water content, and sediment grain size. Samples were collected at six sites at various distances from a freshwater diversion in the vicinity of West Pointe a la Hache, Lake Hermitage, and Port Sulphur, Louisiana in May of 2018, 2019, and 2021. Five replicates were collected at each marsh location. TOC content, percent water, and grain size (percent Clay, Silt and Sand) are reported. Data are in spreadsheet format.
