Fort Ord National Monument Grassland Surveys

Photoquadrat surveys were conducted at 16 sites along Guidotti Road and Skyline Road near the Badger Hills Trailhead at Fort Ord National Monument.

Transects were arbitrarily placed within either open grassland habitat (sites 1, 4, 5, 9, 11, 12, 13, 16) or mixed shrub/grassland habitat with coyote brush encroaching into the grassland (sites 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 10, 14, 15)

Images were taken using 0.5m x 0.5m quadrats spaced 2 meters apart along 50 meter transects.
