Name: Quercus alba - (Nyssa sylvatica) Seasonally Flooded Forest Alliance
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This alliance includes depressional wetlands with an open to nearly closed canopy dominated by various mixtures of Quercus alba, Nyssa sylvatica, and sometimes other trees. The flooding regime is seasonal, though for shorter duration than some related alliances, such as the Quercus phellos Seasonally Flooded Forest Alliance (A.330), Quercus lyrata - (Carya aquatica) Seasonally Flooded Forest Alliance (A.328), Quercus palustris - (Quercus bicolor) Seasonally Flooded Forest Alliance (A.329), and Nyssa (aquatica, biflora, ogeche) Pond Seasonally Flooded Forest Alliance (A.324). Typically, flooding is for several months in the late winter into early spring.
