Observation Narrative	Plot lies in a cypress woodland near the ecotone of tidal marsh and tidal swamp. Here occurs a small area (scarcely as large as the plot) of floristically rich vegetation with affinities to North Landing River / Northwest River low fen-like marshes. The dense roots of Eleocharis may help form and solidify an organic mat which may then become slightly elevated by underlying swamp gasses. Elsewhere, where fresh/brackish marsh prevails, sediments are loose and a continuous mat is lacking. Plot dimensions approximate 10 x 40 m. Plot located west of Meggs Bay, ca. 100 m south of northwesternmost lateral channel.
