Name: Salix caroliniana Temporarily Flooded Ozark Shrubland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This Carolina willow shrubland is found in the Ozark-Ouachita area of the south-central United States, with disjunct occurrences in the Interior Low Plateaus of Tennessee and possibly Kentucky. It accommodates riverside and streamside thickets dominated by <i>Salix caroliniana</i> with temporarily flooded hydrology. This vegetation is often found along riverbanks, sand bars, gravel bars, and other wet sites. In the Ouachita Mountains, this shrubland occurs as a narrow fringe near the low-water level or in scour zones of most streams and rivers, where it is associated with a rocky substrate of cobbles or bedrock. This association includes stands in the interior; a different association represents similar vegetation in the coastal plains.
