"CNVC00003 is a late-seral, conifer-dominated, floodplain association that occurs at low elevations along the Coast Mountains of British Columbia and on the windward slopes of Vancouver Island. It occurs on moist, fluvial high bench sites that are enriched by a seasonally fluctuating water table. The moderately closed overstory is codominated by Sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis ) and western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla )"--Page 1.
