. Assessing the natural range of variability in minimally disturbed wetlands across the Rocky Mountains : the Rocky Mountain ReMAP project. Wetlands; Wet meadow ecology; Shrubland ecology; Flowers. Placement of an alternate plot within theAA. If the AAhas an irregular shape (, long narrow riparian strip, lake edge, wetland smaller than ha) that is incompatible with the standard plot configuration, an alternate plot configuration must be selected. For example, modules may be placed individually or in groupings other than the 2x5 array of the standard plot. Modules may be disarticulate to fit in a free-form shaped AA (Figure 12) or arranged as one long row in a narrow riparian area (Figure 13). To facilitate comparisons among AAs, the number of modules making up a standard plot or any alternate plot configuration should, normally, be the same (four 100-m2 intensive modules and up to ten modules in total) so that equal levels of sample effort are maintained across AAs. POINT Wetland Boundary = Assessment Area. Alternate plot with 10 disarticulated modules Figure 12. Alternate plot placed in AA that is the boundary of wetland that is < ha. For this situation, the alternate plot configuration is defined by arranging as many 100-m2 modules as will fit into the shape of AA, which is equivalent to the wetland boundary. 2010 Rocky Mountain REMAP Field Manual Page 22 Appendix E - 26.
