Name: Pinus taeda - Liquidambar styraciflua Ruderal Forest
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This community type is broadly defined to accommodate mid- to late-successional upland forests strongly codominated by <i>Pinus taeda</i> and <i>Liquidambar styraciflua</i>, resulting from past disturbance (such as agricultural or other land clearing). Understory composition differs based on edaphic site and on age and history. This broadly defined type occupies a variety of edaphic sites, ranging from mesic through dry-mesic sites on a wide variety of (generally acidic) soils. If left unmanaged or undisturbed, this can be a short-lived forest type, which is likely to succeed with greater age into various oak- and oak-pine-dominated forests.
