Jones RH and Gresham CA. 1985. Analysis of Composition, Environmental Gradients, and Structure in the Coastal Plain Lowland Forests of South Carolina. Castanea. 50(4):207-227
From article: "A sample of non-alluvial and alluvial lowland forest in the coastal plain of SC was classified using cluster analysis and then analyzed for environment-vegetation relationships using reciprocal averaging ordination. A gradient of water table positions, fire frequency, and fire severity was noted in the non-alluvial lowland forests. Two gradients, topographic position and river size, were identified in alluvial lowland forests." Work includes samples from Congaree Swamp National Monument.
