Name: Eastern Woodland Vernal Pool Sparse Vegetation Reference: Eastern Ecology Working Group of... Description: This association is characterized by seasonally fluctuating water levels; it may dry out completely in the summer. Hydrology may be affected by impermeable soils, seasonally high water tables, seasonal flooding in nearby streams and drainages, and/or impervious bedrock at or near the surface. The substrate is mineral soil with or without a layer of muck. The species composition is variable among sites, as well as annually and seasonally. Larger examples of this community type may exhibit strong zonation. Many smaller, shaded vernal ponds are unvegetated, their bottoms consisting of dead leaves and algae.  Accession Code: VB.CC.31008.CEGL006453 Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
