Observation Narrative	Plot located on crest of an interior dune ridge, ca. 300 m south of northern end of the interior dune field / Juniperus virginiana scrub. Juniperus virginiana and Pinus taeda have increased markedly over the years and will continue to increase. The pines in particular are relatively young and are fast growing. There is little or no active aeolian sand movement at the present time on this dune crest. Juniperus virginiana measured @ 27 cm dbh.
