there is a gap between the 50% exceedance contour and an upslope NWI polygon included because it is a Palustrine wetland with a tidal water regime modifier (PSS1/FO1S). This is fine and doesn't require revisions; trying to fix such gaps would likely cause problems, because many of them may be road embankments, dikes, etc. But it's interesting.
The gap consists of areas that our field work indicates are clearly tidal marsh. The vegetation is very dense, leading to veg interference with the LIDAR. Also note the transition from alder upslope, to Sitka spruce downslope in the forested wetland at BM T5 – most likely due to salinity.
In map purple circle marks the gap, red is the 50% exceedance contour, and CMECS Biotic Component is in shades of green/olive.
