Description
The reference state supports one community phase. The reference plant community is characterized by an open tall scrubland comprised of one or more willow species with bluejoint and very diverse forbs throughout. Areas without willow are dominated by ericaceous shrubs. This community is stable. All community phases in this report are characterized using the Alaska vegetation classification system (Viereck et al., 1992).
