Abstract

We measured the root collar diameter and species of all shrubs present in sub-plots along the established vegetation transects at Shale Hills and Garner Run watersheds. Sub-plots were placed every 10 and 20 meters at Shale Hills and Garner Run, respectively. Each sub-plot was 2 m by 2 m square, centered on the tape. All stems between 0.1 cm and 10 cm at root collar diameter were measured using a caliper and identified by species. Species were coded by Latin name, with the first two letters of the genus and first two letters of the species.
