SECURE is a global network, spanning 26 countries on 6 continents, of Surface Elevation Table-Marker Horizon (SET-MH) stations that provide high-resolution accretion, elevation, and subsidence data across local and regional landscapes.
The
Surface Elevation Table
(SET) is a portable mechanical leveling device for measuring the relative
elevation of wetland sediments. This website
presents information on the purpose, design, and use of the SET.
