Name: Eastern Woodland Vernal Pool Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 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: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:35094-{802DEAE8-F8AA-4D63-894D-2C431EB39A26} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 7
