Observation Narrative	Resample of 13-year old permanent plot. Corners are now monumented with rebar stakes painted light blue. This plot has changed dramatically since the 2001 sampling because of a recent, localized wind event that greatly impacted the forest. Four large Quercus coccinea, two Quercus montana, and one Quercus alba were blown down, causing several tip-up mounds and littering the area with coarse woody debris. The remaining tree canopy has been reduced to only about 35% cover. Much of the rest of the current vegetation is comparable to that present in 2001. The site is very dry, and insufficient time has passed to determine which species will dominate the regeneration.
