Name: Picea glauca Temporarily Flooded Forest Alliance Reference: Midwestern Ecology Working Group... Description: This alliance is found in limited areas of floodplains in the Black Hills where the most abundant canopy species is Picea glauca. Betula papyrifera and Populus tremuloides commonly occur in small amounts. Corylus cornuta is a common understory shrub. Most stands are relatively small and restricted to areas along streams and ravine bottoms at relatively high elevation in the Black Hills. They may be flooded for a short period in the spring season. Elevation is a more important factor in the development of this alliance than substrate. Stands dominated by Picea glauca occur on soils derived from both igneous and limestone rocks in the Black Hills.  Accession Code: VB.CC.26461.PICEAGLAUCATEMP Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
