Habitat band TG

Tall Grass

Fourth mapped community band before the inland context. This is a study-community label and transect position, not a universal ecological description.

SEAINLANDOPOpen PioneerOP: no study evidence availableLSLower ShoreLS: no study evidence availableUSUpper ShoreUS: no study evidence availableTGTall GrassTG: no study evidence availablecommunity bands form a gradient · boundaries are not rigid

The transect communicates relative position and increasing inland context. It does not imply rigid boundaries, elevation values or unverified environmental tolerances.

OUR STUDY

Species recorded in our 2024 coastal-meadow sampling

60 published Atlas species occurred in TG. Records are ranked by occurrence frequency across the 30 sampled plots; this is not a complete floristic inventory of the habitat beyond this study.
