I. SITE DESCRIPTORS

1. Latitude/Longitude of data collection site:
   42.58 North degrees latitude
   90.08 East degrees longitude
2. Time zone: Central Standard Time
3. Biome Description: forest
   deciduous
   Because we are located in a driftless area (no glacier activity), the landscape has rolling hills. The sandy soil has many liestone and sandstone ledges.
