What Is The Basis For Plant Communities?

• Where can a tree get enough water in Southern California?

  • In riparian areas with enough water flow (riparian woodland);

  • In higher elevation areas where they get more rainfall (pine forests, etc.); and

  • In areas with a high water table (southern oak woodland).
