Observation Narrative	Plot encompasses both aspects of a narrow secondary dune covered by low, mounded Quercus virginiana. Shrubby specimens of Prunus serotina, Pinus taeda, Myrica pensylvanica, and Myrica cerifera occur sparingly. The ocean-facing side of the plot is much drier and more exposed than the back side, resulting in pronounced differences in woody stem height and herbaceous composition.
