Observation Narrative
Plot location: Along Accotink Creek, north of Poe Rd. bridge, between Accotink Creek and Rt. 1, directly southeast of the sewage lift plant.
Plot consists of hummock and hollow microtopography.
See plot form for drawing.
The floodplain right around the Poe Rd. bridge is very disturbed with exotics and trash. The plot lies in a band of relatively undisturbed floodplain habitat between Route 1 and Poe Rd. The floodplain here is dominated by Green ash and graminoids, namely Cinna arundinacea and Poa trivialis.
