Observation Narrative	This wetland is unusual because a thick, quaking, peat/muck mat is present. The wetland supports lush vegetation, probably due to periodic flooding which supplies nutrients. Beneath the peat mat, constant saturation is probably achieved through seepage inputs. The wetland is therefore influenced by two different hydrologic regimes: seepage and seasonal flooding. The vegetation reflects this unusual condition. Fen and marsh plants are admixed. Plot located in the middle of the wetland.
