Observation Narrative	Most of the shoreline on this side of the river is devoid of emergent vegetation due to high energy waters acting on a steep, eroding slope. However, a small feeder stream near the plot created an embayment with finer sediments and emergent vegetation. A few cypress trees with their profusion of "knees," seen to entrap silty sediments and protect the emergent herbaceous plants from the destructive forces of erosion from the river. Other surface substrate consists of cypress knees. Trees measured in plot (dbh in cm): Taxodium distichum (~60, above buttress), Acer rubrum (~25).
