Method Narrative ? This plot is part of field mapping of riparian community zones. Only most dominant or conspicuous species were identified. Cover values were not recorded in the field but were assigned at data entry, typically a range of 1-5% was assigned, unless the species was an upper canopy forest dominant, or otherwise known to have higher or lower cover. This data should be considered as "presence" data only. Absence is not assured and cover may be arbitrarily uniform.
