Landscape Narrative	There is a large cottonwood trunk (dbh 4 cm.) outside the plot. To the west is a higher terrace wit afringe of more upland trees, a narrow field, RR tracks, and a large plower plant.;There are clumps of almost solid Polygonum cuspidatum near the center line of the forest. Periodic inundation has brought metal, plastic and much wood and twig matter to the forest floor.The tree species are all well mixed.
