Observation Narrative	The vegetation here is an open, savanna like woodland shaped by decades of very frequent burning. Physiognomy is characterized by widely spaced trees, very sparse shrub layer and dense, graminoid dominated herb layer. Perhaps similar to communities which occupied fire prone portions of the pre-Columbian southeastern US, this community is now globally rare and essentially confined to military base impact areas. Plot located on low ridgetop 0.3 mi south of Davids Crossroads, Quantico Marine Base Impact Area, Range 15.
