This natural lakeshore forest is dominated by <i>Liquidambar styraciflua</i>; the subcanopy is dominated by <i>Persea palustris</i>. Their hydrology is saturated, but is influenced by lake level fluctuations. This community is restricted in its habitat to saturated, peaty soils subject to periodic and seasonal flooding. These environments are associated with rare natural lakes in the exceedingly flat tidewater Coastal Plain of east-central and perhaps northeastern North Carolina. |

Betula occidentalis Shrubland » more details

This shrubland occurs on stream benches and floodplains in narrow to moderately wide valleys and hillside seeps in the mountains and foothills across much of the western U.S. Surface water is present for extended periods during the growing season. The water table, after flooding ceases, is variable, extending from saturated to well below the ground surface. Substrates are typically alluvial and range from fairly shallow, finer-textured soils to gravel and boulders. Soils usually have signs of saturation (mottles). The vegetation is characterized by a nearly continuous tall-shrub to small-tree canopy dominated by Betula occidentalis along the streambank. Other shrub species include Alnus incana, Cornus sericea, Dasiphora fruticosa ssp. floribunda (= Pentaphylloides floribunda), Salix exigua, Amelanchier utahensis, Prunus virginiana, and Salix monticola. Along narrow valleys at higher elevations, conifers may overhang the stream edge. Herbaceous undergrowth can be limited because of the dense shrub canopy. However, if the shrub canopy is open and the stand is on relatively well-drained yet mesic site (for example, elevated river benches), the herbaceous layer can be abundant. It is often a diverse mixture of grasses and forbs that is dominated by disturbance-induced species, including most commonly Agrostis stolonifera, Cirsium arvense, Phleum pratense, and Poa pratensis. Native forb species include Maianthemum stellatum, Heracleum sphondylium, Thalictrum fendleri, and Rudbeckia laciniata. Graminoid cover is highly variable and can include the following species Carex utriculata, Carex pellita (= Carex lanuginosa), Carex microptera, Carex nebrascensis, Glyceria spp., Juncus balticus, and introduced hay grasses. Diagnostic of this association is the Betula occidentalis-dominated tall-shrub layer and a variable, weedy, herbaceous undergrowth that occurs on sites that are flooded for extended periods during the growing season. |

This alliance consists of mesquite woodlands (usually with open canopy, but sometimes with an essentially closed canopy), dominated by ~Prosopis glandulosa$. |
