Observation Narrative	This long, narrow plot captures a low herbaceous shore of the Potomac River. In normal years, the habitat is exposed only from mid-summer to fall, with low herbaceous vegetation developing quickly from seed banks. Annuals predominate here, and the few perennials present (e.g., Eupatorium serotinum) are severely stunted. Overhanging cover from trees rooted at the top of an adjacent bank was not recorded (approximately 15% of plot).
