Observation Narrative
Plot placed on a low, sandy shore of the Potomac River, above Great Falls. This habitat is inundated for significant parts of the year, and exposed during summer and fall low-flow periods. The vegetation is dominated by low herbaceous plants, including many annuals, but some taller annuals and perennials also occur. The cover of an overhanging Salix nigra (approximately 25% of plot) was not recorded.
