Natural Area Inventory of Pender County, North Carolina

摘要

Ten natural Areas are described and delineated for Pender County as a result of a field survey during May-October 1981. The natural areas contain slightly more than 101,000 acres and at least 104 significant features. The largest percentage of natural area lands (67 percent) is managed by the NC Wildlife Resources Commission. A large fraction of the remaining natural area acreage is comprised of river swamp. Only a small percentage of natural area acreage is non-wetland. Of those areas inventoried, the least satisfactory survey was performed on possibly the most significant natural area in the county--Angola Bay.
