Observation Narrative ? Temporarily flooded forest on broad floodplain of the Willis River. The site is adjacent to Cumberland State Forest's Rock Quarry Natural Area. The area has relatively low exotic cover - there is much more Lonicera japonica cover in other parts of the Willis River floodplain. Six tree species share dominance of the overstory in the vicinity of the plot; Carpinus caroliniana strongly dominates the understory.
