Observation Narrative ? original plot ID: AA0533, Vegetation type confidence: Salvia mellifera patch on eastern part of polygon only. SE 1/5 is Malacothamnus fasciculatus on NE aspect only. Salvia leucophylla on NE aspect only which is southern 1/3 of polygon. Artemisia californica throughout. Eriogonum cinereum good association with Artemisia californica in northern 2/3 of polygon. All assessed. High certainty. Two distinct associations with Artemisia californica in polygon depending on aspect Artemisia californica - Salvia leucophylla and Artemisia californica - Eriogonum cinereum. Salvia leucophylla too big to be inclusion so chose 3210 as primary. Artemisia californica - Eriogonum cinereum largest area so chose 3214 as secondary.; Surveyed stand has an inclusion of Malacothamnus fasciculatus 20%, Salvia mellifera;
