Hello,
I recently applied SLAMM in Mexico along the Yucatan coast. Can someone point me to validation examples from previous applications...perhaps in the US Gulf of Mexico?
Much appreciated,
Greg
A validation exercise was done for Louisiana in Glick et al.

Some other validation attempts were made in the Gulf of Mexico through

Validation is often confounded by -- lack of adequate historical SLR to cause impacts to wetlands, lack of high-quality historic land-cover and especially elevation datasets, and other anthropogenic changes to wetland cover (non-SLR losses)
