Ecological site group description

Provisional. A provisional ecological site description has undergone quality control and quality assurance review. It contains a working state and transition model and enough information to identify the ecological site.

Physiography

This group occurs on various landforms that do not receive significant extra moisture via run-on or throughflow. Included are plateau summits, escarpments, and fan remnants. Excluded are playa bottoms, floodplains, and drainageway bottoms.

Soil features

Soil properties are quite variable. Excluded from this group are soils that are poorly-drained, sandy throughout, and/or shallow to root-restrictive layers.
