My phenology space is quite clearly a wetland. Although it is not currently in the state of a bog, swamp or marsh, the vegetation matches up well and there is a lot of potential for this to occur. Because the place is directly on Lake Champlain and sits on a constructed land mass that extends into the water, the soil is very saturated with water. Because of this, there are many ferns and trees that prefer wet and disturbed soils like ashes and paper birches. But, the soil is still dry enough for a homeless camp to be set up on it. Also, the majority of the place is at a lower elevation by about 10 feet surrounded by a raised path. This lower section is primed to become a full-blown wetland.
