Observation Narrative ? This forested pond (N105-5) has very deep leaf litter and essentially no herb cover except for a few scattered individuals of Carex joorii. The water marks on the trees vary from 23 cm to 76 cm. Medium-sized Quercus lyrata, Nyssa biflora, and Liquidambar styraciflua form the overstory. Shrubs are sparse.
