Open publisher page 4 citations

Abstract

Abstract The Taxodium-Nyssa (cypress-tupelo) association inhabits freshwater wetlands across the southern United States. Taxodium-Nyssa forests are a prevalent subset of lowland forests on sites inundated for most of the year. The association occurs on a continuum from cypress-dominated to tupelo-dominated, but pure stands of either species are common. Pure stands of tupelo often follow clearcutting of cypress (Putnam 1951).
