Observation Narrative ? Stand in late July is strongly dominated by Polygonum amphibium var. emersum and Impatiens capensis, with senescing Carex trichocarpa. Plot sampled at this time to allow comparison with early-season compositional aspect, when carices may apparently be more abundant. Plot placement was designed to minimize inclusion of Phalaris arundinacea, which appears to be encroaching adjacent areas to the north and west. Plot located southeast of Juncus balticus var. littoralis patch sampled in Plot COWB005P. From closer and smaller (flagged) of twin Fraxinus pennsylvanica (22 and 35 cm dbh): 18.6 m @ 86 deg to corner 1.
