Eighty years of vegetation and landscape changes in the Northern Great Plains : a photographic record eightyyearsofveg45klem Year: 2001 Long Pine, Nebraska Location Brown Co., NE; Sec. 31, R. 20 W., T. 30 N.; GPS-UTM 4708894 N, 441588 E. About miles south-southwest of Long Pine. From Long Pine, off Highway 20, travel south on Main Street and cross a bike path (that is, abandoned railroad tracks) near the center of town. Turn right (west) immediately after crossing the bike path and travel about mile to the bridge. Photopoint is from the east end of bridge. Description September 22, 1999 Bottomland and Ridges Grasses. Muhlenbergia racemosa, Panicwn virgatum, Calamovilfa longifolia, Andropogon gerardii, Andropogon hallii, Schizachyrium scoparium, Bouteloua gracilis, Dicanthelium spp., Carex spp. Forbs. Ambrosia psilostachya. Aster ericoides, Conyza canadensis. Asclepias spp., Helianthus annuus. Kochia scoparia, Medicago sativa Trees. Acer negundo, Pinus ponderosa. Populus deltoides, Ulmus americana, Quercus stellata, Juniperus virginiana Synopsis The course of Long Pine Creek has become less meandering since 1908. The 1908 photo shows few shrubs and trees along the watercourse and a narrow meandering creek. Although the 1958 and 1998 retakes show an increase in deciduous and evergreen tree densities and cover, which hide a good portion of the creek, the visible areas reflect a wider and shallower creek. Many serai and invasive species, such as Conyza canadensis. Helianthus annuus, Kochia scoparia. and Ambrosia psilostachya. are currently present. 35
