Application of Remote Sensing Technologies for the Delineation and Assessment of Coastal Marshes and their Constituent Species

Chapman Pond is a tidal fresh water pond located in East Haddam just east of the Connecticut River, between the Goodspeed Opera House and Gillette Castle State Park. It is directly connected to the Connecticut River by two tidal creeks. The pond is surrounded by freshwater tidal marsh ringed by floodplain forest and steep, ledgy upland slopes vegetated with hemlock forest.
