Vegetation inventory and monitoring of four permanent sampling sites has been ongoing in the park’s restored tallgrass prairie/savanna since 2008. Restoration of the prairie/savanna community is a focus of natural resource management, which includes prescribed fire and mowing. Prescribed burns occurred in 2008 and 2010. This report summarizes findings from three years of vegetation community monitoring efforts by the Heartland Inventory and Monitoring Network.
