Observation Narrative	This plot represents a "sub-basin" on the eastern side of a larger pond feature (S105-3). It captures the forested rim and a portion of the basin. Water levels fluctuate throughout the year and there are multiple rings on individual trees ranging from 30 to 60 cm above the ground surface. The herb stratum is very sparse and litter dominates the ground. The shrub and tree strata are very open. Trees in this basin are mostly confined to the higher edges; medium-sized to large, spreading Quercus lyrata dominate.
