Part of large marl marsh complex at Altona / Piedmont. Agricultural fields surround the complex.;Wet meadow adjacent to but not including Evitts Run, in the floodplain. Dominated by tall herbs with invading cattails. Although this looks like a typical floodplain wet meadow, it is underlain by marl and buried peat indicating ancient non-fluvial wetland processes, i.e. marl lake and fen.
Representativeness
Plot was placed to sample tall herb dominance in relatively low cattail cover along Evitts Run.
