Observation Narrative ? The plot captures herbaceous vegetation in the lowest elevation zone of a ~ one-acre sinkhole pond. It is located near the SW corner of the wetland and is marked by red-flagged rebar stakes at each corner. Most of the vegetation ranges from 0.01 to 0.1 m tall, with scattered patches of Scirpus cyperinus up to 1 m tall in the NW quadrat of the plot. Eleocharis acicularis forms a nearly continuous turf throughout the plot; rosettes of Helenium virginicum, fruiting plants of Echinodorus tenellus, and flowering/fruiting Panicum verrucosum were also locally dense over substantial areas.
