Field data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Chickasaw National Recreation Area
2005-2011. Field data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Chickasaw National Recreation Area
This reference is an assemblage of field data collected as part the baseline vegetation inventory for the park unit. Typical files here are vegetation plot data, accuracy assessment data, field photos, PDF showing locations of vegetation plots and accuracy assessment data, and other data for this type. To classify the vegetation, 89 representative plots located throughout the approximately 6,570 ha (16,235 acres) project area (park + environs) were sampled during the summer of 2006. Analysis of the plot data by NatureServe in the winter of 2006-2007 produced 29 distinct plant associations and alliances. Descriptions for three new alliances described in the National Vegetation Classification (NVC) are included. Descriptions for all 29 unique plant assemblages for CHIC are included in this report.
