Observation Narrative	Plot was sampled at low tide, when there was more exposed substrate. The sample is on the edge of Pitts creek and captures an extensive oligohaline marsh. Composition is similar to the nearby plot ACCO021 but the density of Spartina cynosuroides is less, allowing Sagittaria lancifolia, Eleocharis fallax, and a few other associates to attain higher cover underneath.
