1. Deliverable 2.3 CVS will construct refined guidelines for using plot data and taxon distribution data to develop restoration targets for specific sites and locations. These guidelines will be distributed on the CVS website. Due October 31, 2009.

2. Improvements Made  Our website provides a summary of community types based on plot data in the CVS database.  Key improvements:  New woody stems summary  Species common names added  Better navigation and configuration

3. New woody stems summary includes common name, growth form, constancy (percent of plots), basal area, and density. Complete community name added, as well as related identification fields. Navigation improved by adding links to jump to a section, as well as +/- boxes next to each section to show or hide it.
