Observation Narrative
Juniperus-Myrica thicket draping over a sand dune. Some open Uniola at Corner 1. The module nearly covers the whole shrub thicket.; AND: Stem tally is very uncertain. There is one large Juniperus tree with many horizontal (even downhill!) branches. The base is maybe 30-40cm in diameter. Myrica follows the contour on the dune, with none reaching breast height.
