Location Narrative |
The plot is located in the Table Mt. Reserve of Butte County. The stand is located at the northern tip of the Y shaped ravine that bisects the reserve. The stand is dominated by Q. wislizeni with some Arbutus menziesii also present. The shrub layer is dominated by Toxicodendron, although there is sporadic Heteromeles arbutifolia outside of the plot. Plot has ~3-4% bedrock when excluding lichen (at the W side of the plot). The herb layer is mostly introduced exotics, but a good amount of Melica imperfecta is present.
