Ecology of the Sclerophyllous plants of Mount Tamalpais

<p>Mt. Tamalpais, 2571 feet in elevation, is found eighteen miles north of San Francisco in southern Marin County (see Plate 1). Despite its close proximity to a world port and metropolis, its slopes still display a wildness and natural beauty that have remained relatively unaltered as compared with other areas of the Bay Region and demonstrates ready accessibility to detailed ecological study.</p><p>The study began during the spring of 1963 when plant specimens were first collected. After a period of reconnaissance and mapping of the vegetation, quantitative samples were taken in the study area in hopes that relationships could be established between plant communities and environmental factors.</p>
