MLRA notes

Major Land Resource Area (MLRA): 149B–Long Island-Cape Cod Coastal Lowland

149B—Long Island-Cape Cod Coastal Lowland

It is mostly an area of nearly level to rolling plains, but it has some steeper hills (glacial moraines). Ridges border the lower plains. The Peconic and Carmans Rivers are on the eastern end of Long Island. The parts of this area in Massachusetts and Rhode Island have no major rivers. This entire area is made up of deep, unconsolidated glacial outwash deposits of sand and gravel. A thin mantle of glacial till covers some of the surface. Some moraines form ridges and higher hills in this area of generally low relief. Sand dunes and tidal marshes are extensive along the coastline.

Ecological site concept

Pitch pine - oak woodland occurring on very well-drained sandy outwash.

Concept summary from (Sneddon, et al. 2010):

The vegetation is a matrix woodland type of the central Pine Barrens from Long Island, New York, north to Cape Cod, Massachusetts. It occurs on very well-drained sandy outwash or moraine deposits. The canopy is dominated by Pinus rigida (pitch pine) plus the following oaks in variable proportions: Quercus coccinea (scarlet oak), Quercus velutina (black oak), Quercus alba (white oak), and Quercus rubra (northern red oak) and occasionally Quercus stellata (post oak). Tall shrubs such as Quercus ilicifolia (bear oak) can be sporadic to locally well-developed. Heaths tend to form a dense dwarf-shrub layer, especially Gaylussacia baccata (black huckleberry), Vaccinium angustifolium (lowbush blueberry), and Vaccinium pallidum (Blue Ridge blueberry). Morella pensylvanica (northern bayberry) can also commonly occur. The herb layer is often sparse and characterized by Pteridium aquilinum (western brackenfern), Gaultheria procumbens (eastern teaberry), and Carex pensylvanica (Pennsylvania sedge). This mixed conifer-deciduous woodland is a fire-dependent community with a proportion of canopy species dependent on the fire regime.

Climatic features

Coastal regions' climate generally considered maritime, experiences a more moderate climate than inland, i.e., cooler summers and warmer winters and delayed onset of spring. However, coastal regions do experience the brunt of extreme weather such as nor'easters and tropical storms, e.g., hurricanes.

Ecological dynamics

[Caveat: The vegetation information contained in this section and is only provisional, based on concepts, not yet validated with field work.*]

The vegetation groupings described in this section are based on the terrestrial ecological system classification and vegetation associations developed by NatureServe (Comer 2003). Terrestrial ecological systems are specifically defined as a group of plant community types (associations) that tend to co-occur within landscapes with similar ecological processes, substrates, and/or environmental gradients. They are intended to provide a classification unit that is readily mappable, often from terrain and remote imagery, and readily identifiable by conservation and resource managers in the field. A given system will typically manifest itself in a landscape at intermediate geographic scales of tens-to-thousands of hectares and will persist for 50 or more years. A vegetation association is a plant community that is much more specific to a given soil, geology, landform, climate, hydrology, and disturbance history. It is the basic unit for vegetation classification and recognized by the US National Vegetation Classification (US FDGC 2008; USNVC 2017). Each association will be named by the diagnostic and often dominant species that occupy the different height strata (tree, shrub, and herb). Within the NatureServe Explorer database, ecological systems are numbered by a community Ecological System Code (CES) and individual vegetation associations are assigned an identification number called a Community Element Global Code (CEGL).

[*Caveat] The information presented is representative of very complex vegetation communities. Key indicator plants and ecological processes are described to help inform land management decisions. Plant communities will differ across the MLRA because of the naturally occurring variability in weather, soils, and geography. The reference plant community is not necessarily the management goal. The drafts of species lists are merely representative and are not botanical descriptions of all species occurring, or potentially occurring, on this site. They are not intended to cover every situation or the full range of conditions, species, and responses for the site

The Dry Outwash ecological site is characterized by a wide mix of xeric plant communities with coastal affinities from Long Island, New York, north to Cape Cod, Massachusetts. These plant communities coincide with Northern Atlantic Coastal Pitch Pine Barrens system (CES203.269), Northern Atlantic Coastal Plain Dry Oak-Hardwood Forest system(CES203.475), and Northern Atlantic Coastal Plain Heathland and Grassland (CES203.895). The prevailing ecological processes are related to coastal influences, such as a coastal climate and storms, and if within close proximity to the coast, maritime effects of wind exposure, salt spray, and sand movement. This ecological site is influenced by fire. A decadal fire frequency maintains the character of pine barrens, dominated by pitch Pine (Pinus rigida), as well as some heathlands and grasslands with characteristic shrubs northern bayberry (Morella pensylvanica) kinnikinnik (Arctostaphylos uva-ursi), and goldenheathers (Hudsonia spp.) with grasses little bluestem (Schizachyrium scoparium) or coastal little bluestem (Schizachyrium littorale). Longer fire intervals and/or cold-air drainage (frostpockets) will support various oaks (Quercus), predominately scrub oak (Q. ilicifolia), dwarf chesnut oak (Q. prinoides), scarlet oak (Q. coccinea), black oak (Q. velutina), as well as white oak (Q. alba) and chesnut oak (Q. montana). Threats include development and fragmentation, fire-suppresion, off road vehicles, and invasive plants such as, but not limited to, Morrow’s honeysuckle, (Lonicera morowii), oriental bittersweet (Celatrus orbiculatus), wineberry (Rubus phoenicolasius) tree-of-heaven (Ailanthus altissima).

Pitch Pine - Scarlet Oak Woodland, (Pitch Pine - Scarlet Oak / Hillside Blueberry - (Northern Bayberry) Woodland), [Pinus rigida - Quercus coccinea / Vaccinium pallidum - (Morella pensylvanica) Woodland] - CEGL006381. This vegetation is a matrix woodland/low forest comprising the pine-barren lands from Long Island, New York, north to Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Typically, it occurs on very well-drained sandy outwash. The canopy is largely pitch pine (Pinus rigida) plus an admixture of oaks (Quercus): scarlet oak (Q. coccinea), black oak (Q. velutina), dwarf chestnut oak (Q. prinoides), white oak (Q. alba), and northern red oak (Q. rubra) and occasionally post oak (Q. stellata). Tall shrubs are dominated by bear or scrub oak (Quercus ilicifolia) can be sporadic to locally well-developed and northern bayberry (Morella pensylvanica) can also commonly occur. Heaths tend to form a dense dwarf-shrub layer, especially black huckleberry (Gaylussacia baccata), lowbush blueerry (Vaccinium angustifolium), and hillside blueberry (Vaccinium pallidum). The herb layer is often sparse and characterized by brackenfern (Pteridium aquilinum), eastern teaberry (Gaultheria procumbens), and wavy hairgrass (Deschampsia flexuosa).

Dwarf-shrubs such as black huckleberry (Gaylussacia baccata), northern bayberry (Morella pensylvanica), hillside blueberry (Vaccinium pallidum), and lowbush blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium).

Site Development and Testing Plan
Future work is needed, as described in a project plan, to validate the information presented in this provisional ecological site description. Future work includes field sampling, data collection and analysis by qualified vegetation ecologists and soil scientists. As warranted, annual reviews of the project plan can be conducted by the Ecological Site Technical Team. A final field review, peer review, quality control, and quality assurance reviews of the ESD are necessary to approve a final document.

Rangeland health reference sheet

Interpreting Indicators of Rangeland Health is a qualitative assessment protocol used to determine ecosystem condition based on benchmark characteristics described in the Reference Sheet. A suite of 17 (or more) indicators are typically considered in an assessment. The ecological site(s) representative of an assessment location must be known prior to applying the protocol and must be verified based on soils and climate. Current plant community cannot be used to identify the ecological site.
