Observation Narrative	Plot covers the majority of a small but densely vegetated interdune swale ca. 125 m west of the beach. Spartina patens covers > 50% of the area but is interspersed with dense swards of Toxicodendron radicans and dominance patches of Thelypteris palustris and Dichanthelium scoparium. A significant number of shrubs and tree saplings that were established in the swale have been killed recently, presumbly by salt spray associated with storm surges.
