Location Narrative |
The plot is located on the gentle west-facing slope of a Tuscan formation dominated by sparse Quercus douglasii and high boulder and cobble cover. The stand is located in a depression dominated by Hypochaeris glabra, with relatively high cover of Eschscholzia lobbii, surrounded by other lowlands dominated by Trifolium variegatum and highlands with high cover of Lasthenia californica. These types are repeated both uphill and downhill of this stand.; There is grazing at this site, the cattle are present. The grazing impact seems to be moderate. There are several cow pies in the plot.
