Observation Narrative ? Plot location: Approximately 0.1 miles S of US 29 opposite the Battery Heights Interpretive pull-off. No surface rocks present. This plot is situated in a shallow, seasonally flooded upland depression with plastic, claypan soils weathered from underlying diabase. Vegetation here is a woodland with widely spaced Quercus bicolor and Quercus palustris, few shrubs, and a graminoid-rich herb layer dominated by Carex pellita. The lowest point of the basin is open, with increasing density of trees outward to the edges.
