Latitude ? 37.6931643697262 º

Author Location ? San Joaquin National Wildlife Refuge
Location Narrative ? Most trees not rooted in stand, so only canopy counted for overhang. Stand is adjacent to river and meadow and dirt road, so should be able to locate on aerial photo. Narrowleaf willow stand located on SE riverbank of Stanislaus River in San Joaquin NWR, N of end of Beckwith Rd. and N of cultivated fields. NW of dirt road. Half of stand is on flat ground ~6 m up from river. Other half is on steep eroding bank, which has less herbaceous cover. Therefore the steepness of stand varies from 0 to 65 degrees. Percent cover of the 2 areas are averaged.
