Observation Narrative	This plot is environmentally and compositionally similar to plot TURK017, which is located ca. 0.94 km to the southeast. This stand has old, large-diameter Quercus prinus and Liriodendron tulipifera, along with some smaller oaks and Fagus grandifolia, in the overstory. The subcanopy layers are overwhelmingly dominated by Acer saccharum. The herb layer is notably lush but contains relatively few spring ephemerals.
