Observation Narrative	The habitat of this plot is a linear swale situated directly behind frontal dunes in the northern part of Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge. It appears to be irregularly and shallowly flooded by an elevated water table during extremely wet periods and supports a rather dense, mixed stand of Myrica cerifera and Baccharis halimifolia. Plot located ca. 0.7 mi southeast of the Will Hole.
