Name: Pinus ponderosa / Elymus glaucus Forest Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This is an open woodland with 30-40% <i>Pinus ponderosa</i> cover. <i>Pseudotsuga menziesii</i> is common, especially on northern slopes, and is increasing with fire suppression. Shrubs are infrequent, with <i>Symphoricarpos albus</i> being the most common. <i>Elymus glaucus</i> is the dominant herbaceous species. <i>Achillea millefolium</i> is also common. This association is restricted to mid-elevation sites in northeastern Oregon. Topography ranges from undulating to steep slopes ranging from 2-20% with slope position from low to bottom. The aspect is usually southerly, although stands on northern aspects occur. The elevation ranges from 760 to 1525 m (2500-5000 feet). Effective rooting depth of the soil is 50.8-91.4 cm (20-36 inches), up to 121.9 cm (48 inches) in some stands.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:29093-{9016679E-A418-49AA-9569-D37134D6BA30} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
