Landscape Narrative	See plots USFS.192, 193 and transect sheet 28.;Red Oak. Plot was located on a moderate sideslope with an overstory of Quercus muehlenbergii, Q. rubra, Q. alba and an understory of Cercis canadensis, Juniperus virginiana, and Ostrya virginiana. No sign of fire in plot. Shrub layer had Rubus, herb layer had Carex sp. and bottlebrush grass.
