Location: The woods just south of the TESC soccer field.

GPS: 47*04'19.66" N 122*58'01.61" W elevation 164ft

Weather: Raining about 40*F
Vegetation: ACMA POGL POMU

Animals: none

Observations: Ranunculus repens and unknown dicot seedlings are coming up everywhere. Rhytidiadelphus triquestrus on a small piece of ACMA log. Porella navicularis, Metaneckera menziesii, and Isothecium stoloniferum are all robust and producing new growth in ACMA. On a leaning ACMA tree farther back, RHTR is growing with sporophytes (see photo).

Question: I wonder how the growth rates of RHTR differ between the the wet soil of this location and the Alder woodland where it was growing out in the open.
