At the individual quadrat scale, however, the marsh proved to be much more dynamic. Several species appeared and disappeared from quadrats even when their overall occurrence was nearly constant (Griswold and Zedler 1990). Perennial pickleweed (Salicornia virginica) was the most dynamic of the species, appearing and 107
