West Gulf Coastal Plain: Pine Forest
Area: 17,073 acres (6,909 ha)
Description of Mapped Type: In the modern landscape, this type most commonly represents
planted loblolly, or less frequently, shortleaf pine stands, but these areas could not be identified
as pine plantations based on data from 2000 - 2012. Stands were relatively mature at the time
of data acquisition (circa 2012). Pines are overwhelmingly dominant, and trees such as white
oak, southern red oak, sweetgum, water oak, and sugar hackberry may be present.
