Description
The reference plant community is commonly characterized as bluejoint meadow (Viereck et al. 1992). Two plant communities were identified within the reference state related to the depth, frequency, and duration of ponding. All reference state soils are very wet and pond frequently.
The vegetation modeled for this site has limited data and is considered provisional.
