Observation Narrative	Plot captures and extensive upper beach habitat that supports an unusually well-developed stand of Salsola kali and Cackile edentula. The plot is located at the back edge of the beach, adjacent to a pronounced foredune, and thus has slightly deeper and more stable sand deposits that may foster the higher cover of these forbs.
