Abstract
  • This book is a guide to the plant associations of the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area. It includes general descriptions of the physical and biological setting of the Recreation Area: its climate, geology, landscape; soils, wildlife, and ecological processes. Analysis of quantitative field data identified 52 plant associations occurring in the Recreation Area, and others surely escaped our detection. Vegetation is classified according to the National Vegetation Classification System (Federal Geographic Data Committee 1996; Anderson et al. 1998; Grossman et al. 1998). Ordination of stand data, and delineation of successional pathways indicate that the vegetation is arranged along gradients of moisture, stand structure, soil development, and successional age. Keys identifying each association are followed by descriptions of each association. Descriptions of each association include acronym, ecoclass code (Hall 1998), environment, vegetation and ecology, succession, distribution and history, management issues, and previous studies. Appendices summarize vegetation data, and list vascular plants known or reported from the Recreation Area.
