Observation Narrative
Plot location: ca. 0.2 miles NE of Desert Road at Moss Swamp Bridge. Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge.
A relatively mature stand of baldcypress - tupelo swamp forest for this region. Plot is located at the western edge of the Great Dismal Swamp along Moss Swamp. At this site, the main channel of Moss Swamp retains its identity and overland flooding regime, but a short distance to the east becomes indistinct as it filters into the great peat-mantled plain of the Swamp.
