Observation Narrative ? Plot is located on a well-drained terrace bordering the Hyco River, which supports a fairly diverse forest of Liquidambar styraciflua, Ulmus americana, Carya cordiformis, and Juglans nigra. Acer barbatum, Celtis occidentalis, Asimina triloba, and Carpinus caroliniana are common understory trees. The herb layer is dense and dominated by sedges, especially Carex amphibola and Carex grayi. This habitat lies quite high above the river and probably floods very infrequently.
